Founded in 1974, Zodiaque Dance Company (ZDC) has been UB’s eminent pre-professional dance company for more than five decades of innovative, creative performances.
In keeping with ZDC’s mission, the fall program features a diverse array of dance styles, including modern, contemporary, jazz, tap, and hip hop. The concert is under the co-direction of faculty members Kerry Ring and Michael Deeb Weaver, who will also set works. Additional pieces will be created by UB Dance faculty Melanie Aceto, Kurt Adametz and Jenna Zavrel. The program also features choreography by accomplished alum Rich Ashworth ’07 and Bessie-nominated guest artist Ephrat Asherie.
The program is punctuated by the contributions of former UB Dance faculty member Thomas Ralabate (Immediate Past Artistic Director of ZDC and Professor Emeritus) and third-year MFA candidate Madeline Dembowski. ZDC highlights the versatility and individual artistry of our dance majors through faculty-driven creative research and collaborations with the Theatre Design/Technology program.
