DESCRIPTION:Berkeley Dance Project 2018\nFebruary 15– 17 and February 22 - 24, 2018 | 
 8 - 9:30 p.m.  \nZellerbach Playhouse - 
 (http://www.berkeley.edu/map?zellerbach)\n\n"Berkeley Dance Project 2018" 
 features works by professional Bay Area choreographers Katie Faulkner and 
 James Graham, as well as by Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies student 
 choreographers Madeline Aragon and Hillary Tang. Berkeley Dance Project 
 opens Thursday, February 15, 2018 and continues through Saturday, February 
 24, 2018 at Zellerbach Playhouse. Performances are Thursdays, Fridays and 
 Saturdays at 8pm.\n\nKatie Faulkner (the award-winning founder of little 
 seismic dance company) has created a piece that uses movement and 
 projection mapping to examine the physical changes that women undergo as 
 they progress through puberty, childbearing, aging, and illness, with a 
 specific focus on the power that women possess in their ability to 
 reproduce. On the heels of a year of female action and activism (2017’s 
 Women’s March on Washington, and the recent #MeToo and #TimesUp 
 movements), Faulkner’s piece, performed by an all-female cast, gives 
 voice to the physical experience of being a woman in the world. \n\nJames 
 Graham (artistic director of the San Francisco-based James Graham Dance 
 Company) has created a new work that questions our experiences with gender, 
 sexuality, and identity – how we see ourselves, and how we are seen in 
 the world. James questions, “In comparison to when I was a student, how 
 do these diverse young people experience their comfort level in their own 
 gender identity and sexuality? It’s inspiring to delve into their 
 stories.”\n\nOriginal student choreography is also featured in "Berkeley 
 Dance Project 2018." Works by TDPS students Madeline Aragon and Hillary 
 Tang will be restaged on a larger scale, after premiering in December as 
 part of TDPS’s Fall Choreography Showcase. Aragon’s duet conveys the 
 challenge of clear communication between two people, and the resulting 
 impact on relationships between friends, lovers, or family members. Hillary 
 Tang's solo exposes her personal process of acknowledging a toxic 
 relationship, removing herself from the abuse, and ultimately finding 
 internal peace and clarity.\n\nTickets required: \n$13 Students, Cal Staff
