Dance Students Present Annual Graduation Concerts

Dance students in their fourth year of study will present their graduation concert “Chaotic Existence” on two consecutive evenings, Thursday and Friday, April 12-13 at 7:30 p.m. in Bowker Auditorium.

Five seniors – Julianne DeRouin, Ariana DiBiasio, Madi Levesque, Asia Miller and Colleen Unda – will present a diverse program exploring a wide range of topics, including the contrast created when opposites collide; the influences of environment and societal expectations on the human experience; and a candid view of life in a dance studio.

The program invites the audience to travel through a year’s worth of the students’ research and discovery, displayed in a formal show.

Ticket are $5 for students, $10 for the general public, and free for UMass students with a valid UMass ID. Tickets may be purchased at the Fine Arts Center Box Office, by phone at 413/545-2511, or online at www.fineartscenter.com/musicanddance.
