Hailing from Moscow, the grand prize winners of the 2017 M-Prize International Chamber Arts Competition, Russian Renaissance, return to campus for their UMS debut and SMTD residency from January 24-27, 2018.

Directed by Professor Michael Gould, the Center for World Performance Studies Performance Talks is a series of events in collaboration with local arts presenters, which aims to bring performers to campus to foster intellectual exchange between students, faculty, and practitioners, as a means of illuminating global perspectives on performance practice.
