Dance students to premiere choreography at 2014 Senior Exit Concert

The senior showcase is a demonstration of the unique artistic talents of the department of dance's senior bachelor’s degree candidates. Seniors Mollie Henry, Kalela Massey, Mirna Minkov, and Emi Murata will premiere their works at this week’s performances. 

In addition to creating works, the seniors will also be performing in their peers’ choreographic premieres. The work featured in the concert reflects each choreographer’s individual background and movement vocabulary, promising an evening of contemporary dance that is sure to delight.
