Dance program presenting two unique events

Salve Regina’s dance program will present two uniquely different events at the Casino Theatre this week, both directed by associate professor Lindsay Guarino along with adjunct professor Melody Gamba.

“Expressions for Empowerment” is a collaborative performance giving voice and agency to Salve’s dancers, actors, musicians and poets. These truth-tellers will unite to share visions of and for empowerment with the University community.

“Fall Preview: Works in Progress” will give audiences a glimpse into new works by choreographers Kat Pantos of Boston-based Pantos Dance Project, Carlos Jones from Buffalo State College, Boston-based Cayley Christoforou ’15 and Gamba, in addition to select students. Performed by Extensions Dance Company and Extensions II, this event will allow audience members to ask questions of the dancers and learn intimate details about the creative process.

Expressions for Empowerment will be held at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, with the fall preview set for 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 10. Both events are free and open to the public.
