Join Unison Dance as the group presents "Vertigo" on Thursday, April 24th, at 6:30 p.m. in Durnan Auditorium.
Vertigo explores the human experience of finding strength and empowerment in the midst of chaos and instability. In a world that is uncertain, when we find ourselves spiraling and spinning, where do we find our balance?
This show is the result of weeks of creative risk-taking within our High School dance classes. It features student choreography, group collaboration, and a diverse range of dance styles. Each piece tells a different story, collectively taking you on a journey from chaos to calm, from serious to silly, and everything in between.
The story unfolds in the balance between movement and stillness. Vertigo invites you to witness what happens when we move with the spin.
