UW Dance Program Events

This spring, UWTV launches a new arts-themed show that features a collection of contemporary performances from the University of Washington’s Chamber Dance Company. The weekly series premieres on Saturday, March 12 at 8:30 p.m, only on UWTV channel 27.

“UW Dance Presents Chamber Dance Company” features performances from the past 10 years of the series, selecting programs from the most enduring and influential performers and choreographers. With an eye for the nuances of interpretation, Betsy Cooper, Director of UW’s Dance program, provides context and clarity to each artistic performance created by dance legends such as Isadora Duncan and Ruth St. Denis. The eight-episode season kicks off with performances of “The Early Moderns.”
