Dance Capstone Showcase

These dance pieces are examples of the capstone projects that senior dance students create prior to graduation. Dancers are tasked with choreographing a 8 to 10-minute piece through the deep investigation of a concept, technique, or idea of their choice. The months-long process of making a dance becomes a highly rigorous practice where embodied research is carefully weaved with theoretical and epistemological frameworks requiring choreographers to solve complex compositional problems as they shape their aesthetic vision. This process supports them to shape their own choreographic voice, preparing them for their careers as professional dance artists and setting them up for graduate school.
