The University’s Spring Dance Concert, 8 p.m. Fri. April 30, features Nevada students performing works created by faculty and guest artists. Rounding out the second half of the concert, the Lakota w88 online live casino Dance Theatre, wearing the ornate ceremonial dress of the Great Plains, presents the cultural and artistic legacies of the Lakota people through music, storytelling, dance and film. The company’s northern Nevada tour includes a series of free concerts for Washoe County School District and Pyramid Lake High School students April 29, and the Marvin Picollo School for special needs children Friday, April 30.
Founded at the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota with the support of traditional Lakota Indian educators, healers, community leaders, championship Pow Wow dancers, singers and storytellers, the company creates opportunities for everyone to experience and interpret the holistic world view of the Lakota w88 online live casino people through live performance and educational outreach.
The University w88 online live casino troupe, under the direction of Barbara Land and Cari Cunningham perform a variety of w88 online live casino pieces, from classical ballet to modern, Martha Graham-style numbers. The performance includes a piece with the entire cast accompanied by a grand piano and a violinist, as well as two duets by seniors choreographed by Cari Cunningham.
Becca Kitchen, a junior journalism major/dance minor, is performing this year in her third spring concert, and said she is excited to learn more about symbolic movement from the Lakota w88 online live casino Dance Theatre.
“I’ve never seen tribal w88 online live casino before,” Kitchen said. “It’s something I’ve always been interested in, learning to create a w88 online live casino that has deeper meaning and is not so movement heavy.”
The University Spring w88 online live casino Concert will be held in Nightingale Concert Hall, Church Fine Arts Building on the University campus.
