SUMMARY:CONTRA-TIEMPO
DESCRIPTION:Pre-concert Talk with the Choreographers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShingleton Dance Space \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWork in Progress: Roots of Loving Us\n\n\n\nSome creative works come together quickly\, like a spark catching fire. Others take years to take root and grow — expanding across time and location. Join us as we culminate a creative residency with LA-based activist dance company CONTRA-TIEMPO and share excerpts from their newest work in progress. Roots of Loving Us is a multi-year community engagement\, collaborative research project and performance created by holly johnston of Responsive Body and Ana María Álvarez\, artistic director of CONTRA-TIEMPO. \n\n\n\nInspired by the idea of chosen families\, the new work uses somatic healing and ancestral technologies of dance\, music and imagery to present narratives of adoption\, foster care and bioadaptive families. Through community collaborations\, such as their work with Music Therapy students at Shenandoah Conservatory; cross-sensory experiences; and innovative production elements\, this work is a testament to lives transformed by the choice to love forever. \n\n\n\nThis event is presented by Performing Arts Live in partnership with the Shenandoah Conservatory music therapy program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDigital Program\n\n\n\nShenandoah Conservatory uses digital programs for all performances.

SUMMARY:Dancin’ Out
DESCRIPTION:Pre-concert Talk with the Choreographers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOhrstrom-Bryant Theatre \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, March 27 at 7:30PMSaturday\, March 28 at 7:30PMSunday\, March 29 at 2:30PM \n\n\n\nCelebrate an evening of bold\, original dance as Shenandoah’s Dance Ensemble brings a dynamic range of movement styles to the stage. Blending contemporary\, commercial and modern forms\, the program highlights the versatility and artistry of our dancers through works by faculty choreographers Lindsay Browning\, Tiffanie Carson\, Ben Howard and Katherine Zukeri\, alongside alumna Maggie DeFrees ’23 (B.A. in Dance\, B.F.A. in Theatre Design & Production – Scenic Design). \n\n\n\nFrom the pulsing\, high-energy world of Carson’s DRIP — where rave culture and house dance collide in a celebration of chaos and unity — to Browning’s reflective and poetic The Path Beneath Our Feet\, the performance invites audiences into a rich landscape of connection\, memory and human experience. Howard’s Elegos offers a haunting meditation on grief and resilience\, and DeFrees’ RE: Versed explores time\, perspective and the cyclical nature of growth. Bringing the program to a vibrant close\, Disco’s Revenge delivers a bold\, high-octane finale\, channeling the infectious energy and spirit of the dance floor into a thrilling contemporary work that leaves audiences energized and exhilarated. \n\n\n\nTogether\, these works create a compelling journey — visceral\, thoughtful and deeply expressive — showcasing the power of dance to move\, challenge and inspire. \n\n\n\nSuggested Show Rating: PG-13 \n\n\n\nThis production contains theatrical haze and strobe light effects. \n\n\n\n\nDigital Program\n\n\n\nShenandoah Conservatory uses digital programs for all performances.
