Kiera Amison is the artistic director of Muscle Memory Dance Theatre, a company that strives to push the boundaries of performance in the usage of dance as a communicative art form. Beginning as a company member of Muscle Memory Dance Theatre in 2007, Amison strives to be ‘Smart, Human, Physical, and Fresh.

Choreographing several pieces in this concert, Associate Professor of Dance Travis Prokop states: “Having an example of yourself in art we consume, like dance, is important because it allows the observer to relate to the character being portrayed on stage. Dance is about not fitting in, inviting the audience to view the beauty in the composition of the art and making you smile, think, laugh and groove.”

All performances will be held in the University Theatre between the Dishman Art Museum and the Jimmy Simmons Music building on the campus of Â鶹ÊÓƵ.
