Pablo
Pablo Piantino in Twyla Tharp's  The Fugue

Featuring professional dancers of the highest caliber, the Chamber Dance Company presents rarely seen modern dance works of historic and artistic significance. The 2013 concert, In Gender explores the role of gender in dance and the constantly changing attitudes about who dances and why. Choreographers and dances highlighted this year include Doris Humphrey's, The Shakers (premiere 1931), and Air for the G String (1928), Twyla Tharp's The Fugue (1970), Brazilian Duets (1998) by Zvi Gotheiner, and Posession Quartet (1994), by Doug Varone inspired by A.S. Byatt's book and performed to a riveting score by Phillip Glass.

 

Thirty minutes prior to curtain, all ticket holders are welcome to a pre-performance lecture about these historical dances and iconic choreographers in the Meany lobby.

What is "research" in the arts? Here's a few examples of what UW professors are doing including our own Jurg Koch.

  

 

The Inspiration Inquiry
Expanding the boundaries of knowledge in dance, theater and other performing arts requires research of a different stripe.
  

IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT and Cuong Vu is hard at work in his research lab. The lights are dim. Alcohol flows freely. So does the applause. This jazz club where Vu is performing is not your ordinary lab-unless you're a jazz musician.
