The Ensemble performs on the Browning Mainstage of the Loretto-Hilton Center, 130 Edgar Road, on Friday and Saturday, May 3 & 4 at 7:30 pm and Sunday, May 5 at 2 pm.

For this year's concert, the Department of Dance is honored to partner with the Paul Taylor Dance Foundation to restage Taylor's landmark work "Aureole." Rain Stippec returns to Webster Dance as our Alumni Guest Artist, joining faculty members Diadie Bathily, Maggi Dueker, Michael Uthoff, and Xi Zhao in choreographing original works for this year's performance.
