Share In/Share Out: End-of-Semester PMA Dance Showcase

Friday, Nov, 21 - 07:30 PM

Schwartz Center for Performing Arts Class of '56 Dance Studio Theatre

This is a inperson event.

Description

Join the Department of Performing and Media Arts for Share In/Share Out: End-of-Semester PMA Dance Showcase. The showcase will take place in the Class of ’56 Dance Studio Theatre, Schwartz Center for the Performing Arts, on Friday, November 21, at 7:30 pm, and on Saturday, November 22, at 2:00 pm. Both performances are free and open to the public. Get your free tickets at pma.cornell.edu/tickets.

Share In/Share Out is an end-of-semester showcase of predominately student-devised dance works, specifically featuring Cornellians enrolled in PMA Dance Studio courses this fall semester: PMA 2300: Dance Composition and PMA 3210: Classical Dance Technique.

This compilation of projects and portfolios is a part of "Dancing Home/Land," which is a yearlong series of live performances and activations, guest artist residencies and symposia, and extra/curricular experiences that engages artists, students, and communities in dialogue around memory, migration, and place—and where fantasy can serve as a site for reworlding belonging and futurity.

Included in this event is the return of an original choreography by PMA's Assistant Professor of the Practice Danielle Russo in collaboration with Dr. Gabriela Gomez of the Cornell Department of Music and the Cornell Chamber Orchestra, performing Norman Dello Joio's "Choreography," which originally premiered on October 5, 2025 at Bailey Hall.

For more information about this semester’s programming and the courses offered above, please contact Assistant Professor of the Practice, Danielle Russo at drusso@cornell.edu and Assistant Professor, Juan Manuel Aldape Muñoz at jma377@cornell.edu.
