Featured will be new works by Artistic Director Linda Gold , faculty choreographer Reggie Brown , and dance majors Daniel Burval , Maki Inami , Elizebeth Randall , Katiana Rush , and Zari Niada Wigfall . This is an opportunity to explore new possibilities and relationships. The piece deals with awakening romance. Rush has choreographed a duet exploring random encounters and chance relationships. Wigfall's combination of poetry, music, and seven dancers give eloquent form to an African American family's legacy, and Inami's hip hop dance demonstrates the strength and independence of today's young women.
Gold is a critically acclaimed dancer and choreographer who has performed throughout the world.
Dancers in the ensemble hail not only from the Los Angeles area, but other cities in the United States, as well as Brazil, Turkey, Japan, Israel and Iran.
