Featured Quotes:

. . . I think as artists, all of us are really enthralled by the unknown, at least I am. I think it’s exciting to discover new things, I do take the approach that I am forever a student. And so, I think learning about multimedia…I know a little, and just being thrust into a situation where you have to learn is exciting.
Danielle Sheather, Assistant Professor of Dance, Southern Utah University

And all of these things that we’ve learned from screen dance, I do think they can be applied to live dance and I think it will make creative works moving forward, especially for me and for my fellow choreographers from this last concert, I think we have a richer understanding of what dance can be.
Bailey Walker, Senior Dance Major, Southern Utah University
