The Dance Science program hosted its 16th annual \u201cPerpetual Motion\u201d concert Feb. 22-24, with four sold-out shows that each featured 12 individual dance performances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guests were treated to a two-act showcase of dances choreographed by students and faculty at the Dance Black Box Theater in the Physical Education Activity Program Building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To open the show, Carisa Armstrong, program director and associate professor, and Christine Bergeron, associate dean for academic affairs and clinical professor for the program, presented an excerpt of their piece \u201cA Journey of Hope,\u201d which they created alongside composer Richard Hall of Texas State University. Eighteen dancers were a part of the piece, which explores the stories of immigrants, with a large white sheet representing the sail on a boat. The full piece will be performed on May 4 at the courtyard outside the Liberal Arts and Arts and Humanities Building. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two works choreographed and performed by students were featured during \u201cPerpetual Motion\u201d: \u201cWhat Happened to Your Heart,\u201d choreographed by Bailey Zettler and Lenzy Zettler; and \u201cQuiet Noise,\u201d choreographed by Eliza Milner. Both works were featured in the 2023 Student Choreography Showcase and will also be performed at the American College Dance Association\u2019s South-Central Conference in March at the University of Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several performances were choreographed by five new faculty members: Jessica Boone, John Cartwright, Abby Chin, Elijah Gibson and Vanessa Reiser. The closing piece \u2014 \u201cEchoed Memories,\u201d choreographed by Cartwright \u2014 featured a stage full of confetti, and guests were invited onstage to dance with the performers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jam Martinez, stage manager, ran production for \u201cPerpetual Motion.\u201d Costumes were designed by Nicole Burchfield, costume shop supervisor, and Rayna Dexter, instructional associate professor for the Performance Studies program.
