Zhe used an art gallery as an example to explain the structure and the diversity of the pieces. We have 14 very different pieces that comprise a two-hour concert. The concert will consist of primarily modern pieces. In modern, the movement is much more open. It is what you want to interpret it as.
Modern dance is kind of a catch-all term that applies to the new more expressive forms of dance.
The concert will begin with a group of fifth graders from Greenwood Elementary School. They will perform ethnic dances from Jamaica and Uganda. Dance Theatre member Bonnie Cleveland will be performing a traditional Native American dance. Connolly's work here is sponsored by the Wyman Concert and Lecture Series. The spring concert will also feature works choreographed by dance professor Karla Zhe.
