It’s life-changing to have a state-of-the-art performance venue, maybe the finest in Texas, and I am immensely proud that we have a Dean, President, and Chancellor at Texas Tech who believed in the arts enough to help us raise the money for this extraordinary facility, one that will allow us to better educate the theatre and dance practitioners of the future.
Last week was tech week for DanceTech! We spent our evenings in The CH Foundation The Legacy of Christine DeVitt Black Box Theatre applying the final design touches to our seven dance works. Rehearsals for some works began in the fall semester, while others were put together with a few rehearsals this semester. Each work is quite different and showcases the true brilliance of our student performers.
We all know the “chicken and egg” dilemma. This season’s DanceTech challenges audiences with a new question: “Did the music or the movement come first?”
