Brockport AlumniDance celebrates 10th anniversary with New York City concerts

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Brockport AlumniDance, the performing organization will present REVISITED: A Brockport AlumniDance Showcase on Friday and Saturday, January 20 and 21, at 7:30 p.m. at the Center for Performance Research, 361 Manhattan Avenue, Brooklyn. A cocktail reception with the artists, as well as a silent auction, will follow the performance on Friday, January 20. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased online at https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/214125. (The Center for Performance Research can be reached by taking the L subway line to Graham Avenue.)

REVISITED will feature eight works from a variety of choreographers, all of whom are alumni of The College at Brockport, State University of New York, or are current faculty members in Brockport’s Department of Dance. The program will include Treeline Dance Work’s “Intrinsic Archetype,” an excerpt of “Travel by Foot” from Zehnder Dance, whose work was shown at Jacob’s Pillow this past summer; and “Green Eyed” from Kristi Faulkner Dance, which incorporates dance on film. Marisa F. Ballaro and Rebecca Leigh Silverman will each have New York City premieres. Jessica Reidy and Sarah Moore/AreaDance will also present new works, each having recently shown choreography at Waxworks. A new solo from Mariah Maloney will also be on the program. Maloney performed, lectured and taught as a soloist and ensemble dancer with the world-renowned Trisha Brown Dance Company from 1995-2002.

Proceeds from the show will help fund Department of Dance scholarships and fund future AlumniDance activities. A similar event will be presented in the College’s Hartwell Dance Theater on February 23 and 24.
