A celebration of dance featuring the artistry of University of Iowa students and faculty. 

The University of Iowa Department of Dance presents new and restaged works by faculty members—including Gloria Sitso Ahlijah, Eloy Barragán, Christopher-Rasheem McMillan, and Jenn Pray—and creative collaborators. The program also includes Trisha Brown’s Foray Forêt staged by Melinda Jean Myers, a UI assistant professor and former member of Brown’s company. The work will also be performed by UI dance students as part of the Trisha Brown Dance Company’s Hancher performance on November 7.
