UNO is pleased to announce that the 2015-2016 academic year marks the 80th anniversary of the Moving Company. This 80-year legacy distinguishes the company as one of the oldest university modern dance companies in continuous existence in the United States.
To mark this monumental occasion, the Moving Company is creating a spring showcase that will celebrate its legacy as a university dance company. Current company members have choreographed pieces inspired by particular decades. These pieces are influenced by both modern dance of the decade and the themes and movement of the UNO Moving Company repertoire. Through these new works the company strives to honor its past and understand how that history informs the future.
The Moving Company invites alumni to participate in the 80th celebration showcase. Participation can be at any level. Alumni can join in the celebration by dancing, being acknowledge as alumni on stage, or simply by attending the performance as an audience member. Please contact The Moving Company at movingcompany.alumni@gmail.com to respond to the level of involvement you would like to have.
