Choreographer
Shea has worked in film, television and theater as a choreographer. For 20 years , Shea was the protege of Tony-Award winning Choreographer Henry LeTang. Shea assisted Mr. LeTang on many projects and taught along side of him until his passing in April '07. She was the assistant choreographer to Mr. Letang for the showtime movie, Bojangles, starring Gregory Hines. Shea credits her understanding of the work of a choreographer to the unique relationship that she has with Mr. LeTang as his protégé and his teaching that one must never lose the passion for learning.
