What is MOD?A student run advanced contemporary dance company, giving dancers at the University of Alberta a chance to explore their own creativity through choreography, and performance.
MOD is not only run and structured differently than any other dance group on campus, but it also maintains an advanced performance quality through annual auditions in a dance style (contemporary) which has yet to be explored. MOD is a creative student company. This encompasses high level dancers, given the opportunity for high level choreography, rehearsals, and performances, with no intervention from outside teachers/choreographers. We are a student run, student led company. We maintain advanced performance work, and give numerous developed dancers who attend the University a chance to explore their own creativity, through the creation and choreography of their own individual pieces for a year-end show. This company differs greatly in its structure and its contemporary style. It is a youthful and ever changing genre, which has not yet been explored by many of the Edmonton Municipal dance schools or companies. This contemporary style may vary between modern, jazz, jazz funk, and hip hop, depending on the dancers/choreographers preference. |
