Under the artistic direction of Stephan Koplowitz, dean of The Sharon Disney Lund School of Dance at CalArts, The Next Dance Company takes to the Lund stage at CalArts tonight and tomorrow (May 5-6) and REDCAT next week (May 13-14). The dance concert features performances and choreography from the 2011 graduating class of The Sharon Disney Lund School of Dance.
The program includes world premieres by Alpert Award in the Arts recipients Susan Rethorst (2010), and Koplowitz (2004), new choreography by MFA students, Rachel Boyajian and Natalie Metzger, and original work by BFA students.
We’ve posted a video of Untitled by Rethorst, and have included a few stills from Boyajian’s and Metzger’s thesis projects—Liminal and Sacrament—performed earlier this year to provide a glimpse into the diversity of artists involved in The Next Dance Company.
