Interdepen/dance
Dance
Runs Nov 20 - Nov 23, 2025
In a world that seemingly fragments people and ideas into small components, this dance production reflects on the relation of parts to the whole. Our foundational interdependence on each other in society and on the health of our natural world provide living examples of connectivity. Essential to dance, a living tradition passes technique and choreography from body to body and depends on the wisdom of the past informing the present. Whether demonstrating kinetic synchronization or building on the experience of artists who developed dance traditions, we present this concert as an inspired model of interdepen/Dance.
This program features José Limón’s Choreographic Offering, his stunning tribute to the dance master and Chicago native, Doris Humphrey, as well as choreography by guest artist, Tracey Franklin. Including original work by Amy Michelle Wilkinson, Raúl Díaz Maroto Casasola and Kara Hoag, Interdepen/Dance engages our faculty and student artistry celebrating wholeness and interconnectivity.

MFA Collaboration Series: Among the Dead
Performance Art
Runs Nov 21 - Nov 23, 2025
Ana, a Korean American, travels to Seoul in 1975 to retrieve her recently deceased father’s ashes. When a bellboy named JC shows up at Ana’s hotel with a package containing her father’s WW2 diary, three separate time periods collide in the small hotel room. We meet Luke, a young American soldier fighting in the jungles of Myanmar in 1944 and Number Four, a Korean comfort woman camping out on a bridge in Seoul in 1950, waiting for the return of the young American soldier who fathered her daughter. Time, space, and Ana’s own origin story are connected by a shape-shifting Jesus in this dark comedy about a family broken apart by betrayed promises and how they find each other again through SPAM, journals, and Jesus. Mostly Jesus.
