Translation: A Modern Dance Event
This weekend at the Power Center, the Department of Dance will perform a modern dance piece inspired by last semester’s theme of Translation. The piece will feature four works: one by world renowned choreographer Bill T. Jones called “D-Man in the Waters,” and three others by celebrated U-M faculty including Jessica Fogel, Amy Chavasse, and Sandra Torijano. With inspirations from Marcel Danesi’s “The Puzzle Instinct,” Lewis Carroll’s whimsical writings, Latin American art and poetry, and the music of Felix Mendelssohn, this piece will translate an array of expressive mediums into the art of movement.
Performances will be held on Thursday February 7th at 7:30 pm, Friday and Saturday February 8th and 9th at 8 pm, and Sunday February 10th at 2pm. For more information and to purchase tickets, click here. See you there!
