ANEW: A Black History Month Celebration
The School of Dance Presents:
Join the University of Utah School of Dance for ANEW: A Black History Month Celebration as we honor black dancers, choreographers, students, and artists. As an artistic educational institution, the School of Dance believes that students, faculty, and staff must feel seen, heard, and valued to be fully engaged in our artistic, pedagogical, theoretical research and endeavors. To honor the art created by black School of Dance alumni and community members, ANEW will feature a restaging of the critically acclaimed ballet Fever Dream created by Joshua Whitehead (former Ballet West demi-soloist) as well as a new work by University of Utah Modern Dance BFA Distinguished Alum Natosha Washington. Students will also perform a new contemporary ballet piece by guest artist Adesola Akinleye (Texas Woman’s University). ANEW will conclude with the first ever Screendance film presented during a School of Dance mainstage production by University of Utah Modern Dance MFA and Screendance Certificate alum, Irishia Hubbard.
