MFA Dance Showcase

Directed by Madeline Dembowski
Faculty Mentor: Anne Burnidge 
Choreographers: Ava Basset, Alyvia Christensen, Madeline Dembowski, Samantha Oliver, Miranda Spada

The MFA Dance Showcase offers a peek into the creative process of dancemaking, featuring works in various stages of completion from current MFA Dance students. The works are often generated collaboratively with other artists, and the Showcase offers a space for choreographers to experiment and innovate movement-based performance. The concert is under the direction of MFA students, with faculty supervision by Anne Burnidge, director of dance and associate professor of dance studies.

 UB’s dance program is built upon the belief that dance is a fundamental expression of humanity with the ability to inform, transform, reflect upon, and lead local and global change in the 21st century. With close faculty mentorship and numerous opportunities to create and present work, MFA Dance students engage in advanced practical, theoretical and critical inquiry while honing their abilities as artists, dance makers, educators, writers, innovators, scholars, policy makers and leaders.
