10TH ANNUAL CELEBRATION OF DANCE @ UR The Department of Theatre and Dance welcomes a diverse student body that is actively practicing different styles of dance as a form of expression and vibrant community-building on campus. Dance is at its roots celebratory: it celebrates the body and its ability for expression. This year we present works from a student dance company, a student choreographer, and a range of dance clubs here at the University of Richmond, both new work and highlights from past years.
