SUU dance dept. presents original choreography with Fresh!
By Ashley H Pollock
SUU’s department of theater and dance will present a concert consisting of original choreography titled Fresh! Nov. 30 and Dec. 1, 3, 7, and 8 at 7:30 p.m. and Dec. 8 at 2 p.m. in the Randall L. Jones Theater.
“As an evening of original choreographic works, Fresh! addresses notions of resurgence, and the role of art-making to generate new ideas and make meaning out of seemingly disparate points of view, opinions, and experiences,” said Michael Crotty, assistant professor of dance. “Fresh! draws on the unique points of view of several choreographers as they utilize dance as a conduit to make meaning and authentically generate bold works of art that can challenge, entertain, and revitalize us.”
“Before I came to SUU, I had never practiced or performed the modern dance style,” said Zadie Farris, a freshman dance education and history education double major. “Some of the movement that has been asked of me is challenging because of how foreign it is to my body. New experiences, ideas, and movement are always challenging because they are different. Yet it is through the new and often times uncomfortable that we as people grow the most.”
Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for alumni with card, and $5 for youth. SUU faculty, staff, and students can get in free with a valid ID card. Tickets can be purchased at the America’s First Event Center Box Office, at the door the night of the performance, or online at suu.edu/pva.
