MURFREESBORO—MTSU’s Department of Theatre and
Dance will celebrate a fresh new season with its Spring Dance Concert,
scheduled for Thursday, April 25, through Saturday, April 27, in the
university’s Tucker Theatre.
Performances are set
at 7:30 each evening.
Directed by Professor Kim Neal Nofsinger, the 2013 Spring Dance
Concert will feature a large cast of approximately 40 dancers with a variety of
music to explore various aspects of diversity.
“The show has pieces such as ‘Raymonda,’ a classic ballet, and more
modern things as well. So there will be something for everyone,” said
Nofsinger, who directs MTSU’s nationally recognized dance program.
Auditions were held last fall, he added, and the dancers have been
practicing six days a week since January.
“I’m excited to be working with everyone,” said student dancer Aaron
Allen. “I get to do four pieces, one of which I’m partnering people sitting in
chairs. It’s so much fun.”
Allen will be part of “Uncommon Rituals,” a dance created by guest
artist Heidi Schill Clemmons that integrates two guest performers who use wheelchairs
in their daily lives.
General-admission
tickets for the Spring Dance Concert are $10 for adults and $5 for K-12
students. MTSU students will be admitted free with a valid student ID.
Tickets can be
purchased at the door. The Tucker Theatre Box Office
will open one hour before each performance, and the theatre will open for
seating 30 minutes before curtain time. The box office will close promptly when
each show begins, and no tickets will be sold during the shows.
