Performing Ourselves
UW Lathrop Hall-H'Doubler Performance Space 1050 University Ave., Madison, Wisconsin 53706

It’s not officially spring until 125 exuberant, creative and passionate young dancers take the stage for the annual showcase by Performing Ourselves. In this sixth annual concert, young people from Madison community centers and schools present their own choreography, exploring what it means to be “better together.” Performing Ourselves, a nonprofit co-directed by associate professor Kate Corby (UW-Madison Dance Department) and movement therapist Mariah LeFeber, offers dance education and movement therapy principles taught by UW-Madison dance majors to underserved youth. The raucous and uplifting performance is free and open to the public, with a post-performance reception in Virginia Harrison Parlor.
