Roxane Wallace’s Afro Modern choreography infuses elements of modern dance with traditional dance forms of the African diaspora. Taja Will’s new work considers the intricacy of the pop culture ideal of love. Artistic Director Kaori Kenmotsu’s “Bye” creates a physical score that represents the complex nature of letting go. Finally, new student works explore a variety of different movement styles, including: modern, lyrical, and hip-hop fusion.
