The Department of Theatre and Dance at the University of Kentucky invites the community to experience a site-specific dance performance, EchoLocation: The Mobile Tour. Due to Covid-19, the dance program aims to present a diverse performance opportunity for our students, faculty and community. Most recently, the focus is on “site-specific performances” in which the venue is intrinsic to the work.

The Studio Season goes online this year!

The Musical Theatre Certificate Cabaret has always been a space for students to bring whatever they want to the table. To showcase new repertoire, sing their favorite songs, and test out wild ideas that don't fit into our regular curriculum. This semester, it's more interesting than ever before, as performers take their songs into their living spaces. Enjoy a night of songs from our kitchens, our bathrooms, our bedrooms, and our backyards - our stage for the time being. 

The Studio Season goes online this year!

Un-Staged is this season’s curveball. Created specifically as a response to the unique situation of school this year, Un-Staged is designed to put your opinions and thoughts at the forefront. This virtual festival will be comprised of videos submitted by individuals or households and will feature 100% original works. Write a poem, monologue, or short play, choreograph a dance, film a skit, write and sing a song, or do something we haven’t even thought of.

The University of Kentucky Department of Theatre and Dance presents Once Vacant: Bodies in motion…still. The dancers will perform in the Orange parking lot on UK's campus, while the audience will maintain social distance surrounding the performers in their cars. The practice of occupying vacant spaces is a tool that many dancers and dance companies are accessing globally to continue to create, perform, and advance the field of dance during the pandemic.
