Experience an evening of original works choreographed by graduate students, as
The University of Utah Department of Modern Dance presents, The Other Side of
Human. This concert features the premier of six works that are the culmination
of both research and the creative process of dance choreography.
The Other Side of Human evokes curiosity about the shadowed aspects of
humanity using movement and text. Each artist has chosen to explore basic, yet
integral human concepts as a means to reconnect to the threads of humanity and
to fight to unveil our own existence. The choreographers Belle Baggs, Li-Sha
Niu, Emmy Barker, Efren Corado, Erica Womack, and Elizabeth Stich, explore,
challenge and question themes of empathy, group consciousness, the subjective
and objective self, loneliness, self identity, and metaphor. This concert features
students from the department and dancers from the Salt Lake City community
with lighting by James Larsen.
Performances are held at the Hayes-Christensen Theater at the Marriott Center
for Dance (U of U campus, 330 South 1500 East, Salt Lake City, just west of the
Marriott Library), on November 11, 12 & 13, 2010. Performances begin at
7:30pm. Student tickets are $7 each, and general admission is $10. Tickets are
available through the Kingsbury Hall Ticket office at (801) 581-7100, online at
www.kingtix.com or at the Marriott Center for Dance box office one hour prior to
the performance. For more information call (801) 581-7327 or visit us at
