In this year of the 250th anniversary of our nation, Dance at Illinois celebrates collaboration as the key concept of democracy. Associate Professor Paige Cunningham Caldarella creates a new work assisted by senior BFA student Cheyenne Smith and in partnership with the mighty first-year undergraduate students of Dance at Illinois. Second-year MFA student Hollis Bartlett reconstructs a work by his mentor, contemporary choreographer Doug Varone, and two groups of dance faculty combine forces and methodologies to unleash powerful premieres with designs by Illinois Theatre students.
There will also be a livestream performance on October 14, at 7:30pm.
