The Department of Dance Presents Imagatorium Spring 2025
Case Western Reserve University’s Department of Dance announces its final production of 2024-2025 season, Imagatorium, a concert featuring dance works by graduate students Megan Gregory, Noah Hardy and Maizy Windham, along with senior capstone projects by Hannah Boehringer and Natalie Tangpricha. Performances are April 10, 11, 12 at 7:30 pm. All performances are located at Mather Dance Center, 11040 Bellflower Road, on the Case Western Reserve campus in University Circle. Gregory’s ensemble work Sands is a metaphor for the human experience and aims to capture the waxing and waning of one’s resolve to face ongoing adversity. Time drags on as the dancers struggle together and as individuals, and their resilience drives any progress made along the way. This glimpse into their experiences conveys that it’s not always easy to weather the storm of life, and sometimes the journey can’t be made alone. Vignettes, choreographed by Noah Hardy, is a triptych of miniature dances set to a variety of music. Utilizing a combination of projection mapping and LiDAR tracking, the dance has a unique visual identity that follows each of the four dancers, as the identities all begin to blur together throughout the piece. Maizy Windham’s Jeu de Jour is a piece for four dancers, a set of three chairs, and contemporary choreography inspired by the movement vocabulary of childhood games. Jeu de Jour expands upon this idea of recreation and competition through the relationships between dancers to uncover the outcomes of intrepid play. Flux is a collaboration work by Hannah Boehringer and Natalie Tangpricha. This duet is a journey between chaos and order through playful yet powerful movement. Solo and duet sections depict a struggle for dominance, with each shift guided by the music’s ever-changing structure. While fast-paced and rhythmic, moments of pause offer space for reflection. The piece ultimately highlights the fluid interplay between structure and spontaneity, immersing the audience in its contrasting forces. Ticket Information Tickets are $15 for CWRU students with ID, $17 for seniors age 60+, CWRU personnel and non-CWRU students, and $20 for general admission. Online ticket sales open on February 28th via https://case.edu/artsci/dance/news-and-events/ticket-reservations.
