Studio Stories: Reminiscing on Twin Cities Dance with Annie Enneking - Season 9, Episode 116

Annie Enneking has been a performing artist for over forty years.
In her various capacities as actor, dancer, songwriter and fight
director, her work has been seen on almost every stage in the
Twin Cities, as well as across the country. She fronts and
founded the band Annie and the Bang Bang, with whom she goes on
many rock and roll adventures. She was a 2010 Playwrights’ Center
McKnight Theater Artist Fellow, and has twice received a
Minnesota State Arts Board Music Grant to further her work as a
theatre/music maker. Additionally, she received support from the
Jerome Foundation and Minnesota Regional Arts Council for devised
music events like what i want now i will want later (created with
Samantha Johns). Based on the myth of the Sirens, it was part
fight club, part movement event, part album release party. As a
dancer, Annie worked and toured professionally with Paula Mann
Dance, Shawn McConneloug and Her Orchestra, Jane Shockley, and
Danny Buraczeski’s JAZZDANCE. Combining her love of dance and
acting, she currently teaches the art of stage violence at the
University of Minnesota, in both the BA and BFA programs. She
lives in Minneapolis with her husband, firefighter and writer,
Jeremy Norton, with whom she has two amazing daughters.
