Culminating work from students in the Dance MFA program.

Featuring choreography from Connor Cook, Olivia Danni and Erica Densmore

Scavengers, a work by Connor Cook, explores the relationship between the microscopic world, outer space, and our relentless search for answers to life’s big questions. 

Embodied Past by Olivia Danni is a film centered around bettering educators in the dance field and how we can challenge the norms in a dance classroom. The film highlights 15 dancers and their embodied pasts, taking a deeper dive into the values of dance. 

I Spent So Much Time Thinking About it, it Wasn’t Really Real is an abstract retelling of moments in Erica Densmore’s life. Through vague memories and distorted realities, the dancers reflect on a somewhat unreliable trail of thoughts.
