Crossroads 2025

Crossroads is an exciting collection of new and reenvisioned works performed by Dance Arts students that celebrate the half-way mark of the 2025-26 school year. On the program are commissioned works by David Norsworthy and Susie Burpee, an excerpt of Amanda Acorn’s award-winning multiform(s), and a work devised from Woven and various solos by the seminal Peter Chin. Featuring both improvised structures and set material, the program approaches contemporary performance from a variety of temporal perspectives.  Each process, work, and student has benefited from input and guidance of rehearsal direction from Rakeem Hardy/Norsworthy, Bonnie Kim/Burpee, Meryem Alaoui/Acorn, and Johanna Bergfelt/Chin, with design by Val Calam and Emerson Kafarowski with Helin Gungoren stage managing. We are grateful for the artistic team, excited for the students, and eager to share this program with you!
