AMS students at the Stanley Theater.
Students in the AMS program visited the Stanley Theater in Utica, NY to see a performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater on April 29, 2014. Joined by Mary Simonson, Asst. Professor of Film & Media Studies and Women’s Studies at Colgate, students enjoyed a stunning performance by one of America’s most esteemed dance companies. The two-hour show was virtuosic, but a particular favorite among AMS students was “Takademe,” with choreography by Robert Battle, that performs a “savvy deconstruction of Indian Kathak dance rhythms.”
