ABOUT ZODIAQUE DANCE COMPANY'S “DANCE LIVE" FOR SCHOOLS:

• Approximately 60 minute program with combination of dance and dialogue about the work
• Jazz, modern, and contemporary fusion styles presented
• Innovative designs on the UB Center for the Arts Drama Theatre stage

The art of dance uses movement to communicate meaning that defines the human experience. Dance reflects the values of a multicultural society, stimulates critical thinking and makes cognitive and artistic connections through the creative process. Zodiaque Dance Company (ZDC) has succeeded for over 47 years in proving that Dance is a relevant subject of inquiry, integration, and engagement. This spring, ZDC presents Dance Live, a dance experience that explores various styles of movement and asks the question “What is Dance?” Through accessible dances designed to entertain, excite, and integrate the arts through movement, students will make connections to international dance styles, popular American dance forms, and interpretive expressions of modern dance. ZDC is an innovative force, advancing inspired talents through stimulating collaborations and creative investigations which deepens audience understanding and appreciation for the arts.

Curriculum Connections: Language/Communication, Explores Diversity through Movement, Aesthetic Inquiry, Music, Athleticism, Making Observations and Connections, Asking Questions, and Sharing Findings with Others.

The UB Arts Collaboratory and the UB Department of Media Study are contributing sponsors towards Improved Journeys, a transdisciplinary faculty research project that includes the development of the danceSense performance.
