Hearst Dance Theater, Lewis Arts complex

April 13-15, 8:30 p.m.

This show features two dance works — “There She Is” by Camryn Stafford ’23 and “Acero” by Michael Garcia ’24. “There She Is” depicts Black women’s simultaneous hypervisibility and invisibility in society. It prompts the audience to question their role in the stereotyping, objectification, and tokenization of Black women. Meanwhile, “Acero” explores three stages of stress response in the body: Alarm, Resistance, and Exhaustion. The title translates to “steel” in Spanish, which is “an homage to the work’s Spanish music and to the notion that strength is forged during periods of intense change.”
