The Aux: UNM's Department of Theatre and Dance challenges assumptions through 'Meta/Physical'
Kara Olguin | March 1CENTER FOR THE ARTS — On Friday, Feb. 28 the Department of Theatre and Dance opened their annual faculty dance concert in Rodey Theatre at the University of New Mexico. This year the concert, entitled "Meta/Physical," held space for six choreographic works that showcase the vast capabilities of present-day dance in the theatre setting. "The show is very diverse," Donna Jewell, the artistic director of "Meta/Physical" said. "I really believe that the student(s) ... should be exposed to different ways of making work. (The dance faculty) have hard discussions about what we value on the stage and what we value in process." "Meta/Physical" is generous in its offering.
