The Performing Arts Department Presents:

2022 MFA Student Dance Concert:
Solve et Coagula

March 26 at 8:00 p.m.

in Edison Theatre

This year’s concert, Solve et Coagula, celebrates the fifth year of the MFA in Performing Arts Department. The program brings to our audience an outpouring of choreographic inspirations. Each creation offers a particular perspective on the most current topics and abstract concepts. One dance is concerned with processing emotions and states of being while the other moves us from suffering to transformation. Kinetic and colorful, the dances sculpt images of life and rebirth.
In addition, we welcome back our 2020 cohort whose works were never seen due to the pandemic. Mindscapes embodies the remembered and the forgotten, and discovers of what can be found amid the oppositional forces of minimalism and expansion.
Admission is FREE. There are no tickets for this performance.
