Collaboration... of DANCERS



Madison Dance Conference(MDC) is the largest dance collaboration ever on the UW-Madison campus and probably the largest across all campuses. It is a collaboration of 16 dance-oriented student organizations. The premise is a celebration of all forms of dance. MDC teaches lessons and on the final night has performances from all the dance groups. Here's the catch--groups pair up to do fusion dance performances. For example this year include mixes like the Irish step dancers dancing with break dancers and salsa dancers with bhangra crew. MDC for this year was yesterday, November 21, 2010. There were over 600 attendees, 8 performances, social dancing, and lessons. For more information check out the website. The video will be posted soon. You should watch it because it was awesome.

    This seems really great and innovative, I'm glad our university is participating in it. It reminds me of the show So You Think You Can Dance, because the contestants are asked to perform in all different genres of dance, despite their speciality. I think that collaborations like these really tests the dancer's abilities and overall comprehension of the art form. I look forward to going to a show!
