Join the Movement as dancers take to the stage to bring new choreographic visions to life in a stunning showcase Dec. 2-3 at Nadine Baum Studios downtown Fayetteville.

As the cold air moves in and the chill of finals follows suit, join us for an evening in which the joy and vibrance of dance provides a reprieve from the busyness of the season. The show is free, but seating is limited, so be sure to reserve your ticket in advance.

Student choreographers Hailey Anders, Gracie Tuohy and Jessica Znidarsic are passionate dancers with distinct visions uniquely crafted for this company in this showcase. The showcase will also include a guest performance from the Theatre Department's Broadway Jazz class, choreographed by Michelle LeBlanc. To cap off the show, the full company will perform a brand new piece by Heidee Alsdorf, an esteemed local teacher and collaborative performance artist.

The showcase will be held in the Nadine Baum Studios, 505 W. Spring St., Fayetteville, on Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 2-3, with shows at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. each day. 

Doors open 30 minutes before the show.
