An Evening of Dance at Alfred University
This coming February I will be featured in a dance theater concert at Alfred University. I've been in this dance showing two years already and this will be my third. Whats most special about this year is our visiting choreographer: Brian Brooks who is big in NYC right now. He creates modern dance works with his company and he's coming to my school to produce a piece for our concert. I've fortunately been selected to work with him along with two other choreographers, a professor and a student. Im looking forward to all the hard work and long hours of rehearsal!
Here are some images from the work Brian Brooks performed at the opening of our new theater two years ago:
This is the Miller Theater at Alfred University where the February Dance Theater Concert will take place.
Here is an image from my first dance theater performance choreographed by Robert Bingham, who sadly no longer teaches here.
And in the same concert I was in another piece choreographed by a fellow student named Katie Barlow. Im on the farthest left.
Im third from the left.
This was just last years show where I was only in one piece but it was a guest artist by the name Tiffany Mills. She also has a company in NYC.
She wanted only the colors red, yellow, orange and brown to make up our costumes.
Im the second from the right with my head back.
Hopefully this year I can successfully accomplish learning three pieces!
