CWRU Dance presents MaDaCol this weekend!
by Danielle Dowler 28 Nov '22

28 Nov '22

The Department of Dance at Case Western Reserve University is pleased to announce this fall’s production of MaDaCol (Mather Dance Collective). Performances are on December 1, 2, and 3 at 7:30 p.m. MaDaCol, one of the university’s oldest undergraduate student organizations, offers an important creative outlet for CWRU graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, and staff. The performance will feature new dance works by second-year graduate student Joel K. Linebach and alumnus Richard Oaxaca, and senior capstone works by Megan Gregory and Megan Halley. About the Works: Joel K. Linebach’s hors d’oeuvres is a three-part work connected through movement phrases and inspired by mistakes, story-telling, and the catwalk. Choreographed by Richard Oaxaca, Ebb & Flow explores the Buddhist concept of impermanence and is meant to reflect yin and yang, joy and sadness, failure and success. Set to music by Bach, the gleeful, and at times haunting, sounds of the harpsichord ebb and flow beautifully. In life, people are faced with greatness and times of joy, but there is always a pendulum swing to the opposite; however, Oaxaca chooses to end the dance in an upbeat celebration of life. The dancers move through the roller coaster of emotional highs and lows, creating a mirror of life. The two senior capstone projects that will be featured on the MaDaCol were created by senior dance majors. Each of them is expanding on solos they created in the spring of 2022 to create larger ensemble works that contain the original solos within the dance. Megan Halley’s Concerto Rotondo is a three-part work set to a section of a composition entitled “Concerto Rotondo for Solo Cello” by Giovanni Sollima that Halley originally choreographed as solo. Two other compositions by the same composer are included to round out the suite. The work will show, through the dancers, the kinetic aesthetic relationship between the choreography and music compositions by Sollima. Until Tomorrow, a septet choreographed by Megan Gregory was also inspired by a solo that was set to one movement from Tchaikovsky's Opus 6. Gregory was drawn to the music when she learned that Tchaikovsky was inspired to create the music based on a poem he’d read during a time when he was taking a break from composing orchestral works. Gregory chose to restage her original solo for 6 dancers and has created a new solo for herself as well as a third section for 7 dancers each using additional movements from Opus 6. Tickets and Location: All performances take place at Mather Dance Center located at 11040 Bellflower Road, on the Case Western Reserve University campus. All tickets are $10 and may be purchased at Mather Dance Center prior to each performance. Cash or check only is accepted upon purchase. Early arrival is suggested due to limited seating. No reservations and no advance sales will be made. For more information on the department, please visit https://case.edu/artsci/dance/
