TCU dancers can be seen on crutches, on trapezes and being thrown up into the air this weekend at “Moving Forward”, the TCU fall dance concert.
Ballet and modern dance department faculty, two guest artists and a choreographer in residence choreographed the seven pieces which will be performed by ballet and modern dance majors.
Beth Brandt, a junior modern dance major, will perform in “Moving Violations,” a physical piece that incorporates pedestrian movements, dancers being thrown up in the air, crutches and a trapeze. “The dance has humurous elements,” Brandt said. “It is the essence of post-modernism.”
