UVA Drama to Present SPRING DANCE CONCERT

The Dance Program of the Department of Drama at the University of Virginia presents its Spring Dance Concert on April 10, 11, and 12, at 8:00 p.m. in the Ruth Caplin Theatre. We invite you to join us for the presentation of 10 original student, faculty, and guest artist works – both live dance and film – performed by UVA dancers. Choreographers and filmmakers featured in this concert examine themes of connection, impact, repetition, and seeking harmony. The works invite us to consider the complexities of relationship with people, environments, and ourselves, exploring the variety of ways we internalize and respond to our environment, our own actions, and the actions of others.
