The Department of Dance reflects on the pandemic with an eye to the future in “Forward Facing,” this year’s annual dance concert. Featuring two new works by faculty members Krisilyn “Tony” Frazier and Shannon Gillen and a new work by guest choreographers Wideman-Davis Dance–all performed by the exceptional Department of Dance students and a few guest dancers–“Forward Facing” showcases the power of modern dance to evoke emotion and demonstrate resilience in these troubled times.
