The dance presentation will consist of a 10 minute duet, following a short explanation of the demonstration piece and will include a description of how this project originated, the choreographic process and how the integration of theatre has aided the dancers emotionally to connect with the dance. This performance will showcase the York University BFA Dance Program and the other courses offered within the York arts department.
