First Friday Series production.

Innovation and tradition are in the mix for the first dance season in the Greenberg Theatre. Works by guest artist Peter DiMuro, graduate students, and faculty will be showcased. Sherrie Barr, artistic director of the concert and director of the graduate dance program, has assembled the best of AU's choreographic and performing dance talent for an evening of contemporary dance. Barr takes the unusual approach of weaving a recurring commentator-dancer throughout the evening's work, taking the audience through the full dance-making process, from a work's inception to the final curtain.
