There’s so much dancing going on at the Stockton University Performing Arts Center this late winter that it’s going to take three days to shine the spotlight on the gifted artists of the university.

The first show will be on Thursday, Feb. 29, the second on Friday, March 1, and the third on Saturday, March 2. All shows will begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for any of the presentations are $12 for the general public and $10 for senior citizens 65 years of age and older, children younger than 13, and Stockton students, faculty, staff and alumni. They may be purchased online at stockton.universitytickets.com.

Here’s how a Stockton publicist described the three-evening dance fest: “Spring Dance Concert highlights the gifted artists of the Stockton Dance community, presenting dances from notable choreographers that challenge these maturing performers. Reviving an excerpt from Dr. Kariamu Welsh’s masterwork ‘Anthem,’ Umfundalai X producer Saleana Pettaway carries on Welsh’s Umfundalai tradition by reconstructing dances from Welsh’s repertory and organizing the work of the next generation of artists. Collaborative team Albert Quesada and Katie Vickers test the Stockton Dance Company members with driving, sweeping physicality. These internationally recognized guest artists join resident choreographers Beau Hancock, Caitlin Pittenger, Rain Ross, and Lauren White, whose eclectic, imaginative choreography dependably delights. This diverse program promises to be a moving evening.”  —R.M.
