About

This event will feature NC State students in all majors –– ranging from biochemistry to chemical engineering –– who will perform research-based, content-driven artwork in choreography by dance program faculty, guest artists and advanced dance program students.

The year’s Fall Concert will include seven works by student choreographers, Evanna Edward, Emma Callicutt, Olivia Prevost, Drew Chavis, Madison Kotyra, Kara Pawlowski, Rachel Morris and Taiylor Wade.

Of note—as a member of the Lumbee tribe—Chavis will be using her solo to bring attention to the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) movement.

In a group piece, Morris will be exploring how different Enneagram types can affect one another.

Wade’s piece is an exploration of the perception of femininity in contrast with the performance of femininity.

The concert will also include two pieces performed by the Panoramic Dance Project, including one by L.A. based CONTRA-TIEMPO, and a work in progress by current PDP rehearsal director, Alexandra Burchette.

The State Dance Company will premiere a piece choreographed by local artist Davian “D.J.” Robinson who lost his sight as a child. His work explores dance beyond the visual dimension, and brings attention to the need to make dance more accessible and inclusive. The piece touches on the concept of inner beauty versus outer beauty, redemption, finding the true essence within oneself while discovering individuality, and the overall unified beauty of nature and being.
