This performance features the choreography and performance work of Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance seniors as they near completion of their degree. ElleAnna Casterline, Olivia Johnson, Tal Kamin, Sarah Madnick, Abby Niemi and Arianna Stadler will each present a solo and a group dance, featuring additional dance majors.
ElleAnna Casterline’s group and solo dances portray the dichotomy between vulnerability and isolation through the empowerment of the internal self and the deception of the external. This work curates collaborations between screen dance, music production, and performance, demonstrating the multifaceted experience of mental and emotional awareness after loss.
Lydia Dunn’s group explores the state of daydreaming; elegant choreography pairs with an airy and uplifting setting that is beyond reality. Dunn’s solo, In The Cold Light of Day, feels intimately personal as a quieter, darker setting accompanies movement created out of a practice of introspection and finding new approaches.
Olivia Johnson showcases how addiction creates tension in a family and thrives through fakery in A Scoop of Neapolitan. Her interactive and interdisciplinary solo, Inevitable but Voluntary, dives into the belief that in a broad sense of life, fate and free will work together to create reality.
Sarah Madnick’s solo evokes the empty stress of her quaint hometown as a place to find quiet space to unpack the unavoidable and overwhelming emotional pile-up of everyday life. Madnick's group explores the rollercoaster of feeling misplaced and the complicated dynamics of returning to your childhood home after you no longer live there.
While experimenting with jazz-funk and sensual choreography, Abby Niemi and her dancers spread messages of self-worth, positivity, and affirmations through songs by Anderson .Paak and Rihanna.
In her group work, Arianna Stadler explores the naivety of young love and the excitement of possibility while juxtaposing this with a mature disillusioned relationship. Stadler investigates the lengths to which grief and extreme misery can be expressed through satire in her solo.
