Dance Theatre

EKU Dance Theater offers students and faculty the opportunity to perform art and social forms of dance. We have 2 major concerts a year and do several school and community performances each semester. Those who wish to get involved should register for our dance technique class, PHE 250 which meets from 2:00 - 3:15 pm on Tuesday and Thursday. With permission from Dr. McAdam, advanced dancers take PHE 350 or PHE 450. The technique class is the dancer´s equivalent of an athlete´s "practice" and is essential to both "stay in shape" and increase your movement potential.

Dance Theatre Auditions

Dance Theatre Auditions take place the second week of
every semester in the following order:

• Sunday for the Ballroom dance performing group

• Monday for Choreographers to present their ideas

• Wednesday for Dancers
