Coming on the heels of the 20th anniversary of the Dance Center at California State University, Long Beach, this evening of dance celebrates the work of invited alumni choreographers who have returned “home” to their creative stomping grounds: Delyer Anderson, Bobby Avalos, Kim T. Davis, Jessica Kondrath, and Erin Scheiwe Rockwell. They present new and restaged dances alongside a premiere by Master of Fine Arts candidate, Kathleen Helm, bridging generations of artists who have fostered their talents at CSULB. In addition to innovative choreography, Homecoming features evocative lighting and costume designs by Elisha L. Griego (Interim Technical Director) and Liz Carpenter (Costume Designer.) 

Homecoming: An Alumni Dance Concert opens Thursday, October 16th, and runs for four performances, closing on Saturday, October 18th. Performances are Thursday-Friday at 8pm and Saturday at 2pm and 8pm in the Martha B. Knoebel Dance Theater on the CSULB Campus (located near the Pyramid on Atherton). Tickets are $20 for general admission and $16 for seniors, students (with valid ID) and Dance Resource Center Members.
