Washington University Dance Theatre: It's Time

The annual dance concert features diverse artwork by resident and guest choreographers, performed by student dancers of the Performing Arts Department.

Dance is understood as a temporal art form, each movement capturing the present moment while gesturing toward the past and future. Philosophically, the ephemerality of dance art work speaks to the often disquieting nature of our transient existence, emphasizing the fleeting beauty and immediacy of the performative act.  

It’s Time, this year’s installment of the Performing Arts Department’s annual fall dance concert explores the relationship between temporality and dance, posing the question “What is it time for?”—in dance, art, history, culture and society. This annual concert dance showcase features diverse and creative choreography by resident and guest artists, performed by select student dancers of the Performing Arts Department. 

Artistic Direction by David Marchant
