    Moving Memories: Representing the Holocaust and Survivor Stories Through Dance

    Join dance historian Dr. Rebecca Rossen in dialogue with Stephen Mills of Ballet Austin, whose critically acclaimed ballet, Light / The Holocaust and Humanity Project, will be restaged March 31-April 2 at the Long Center. Dr. Rossen will discuss “testimony dance,” which are performances based on the oral histories of Holocaust survivors that archive the stories while situating audience members as witnesses, challenging viewers to not be complacent. Then Rossen and Mills will talk about the process of making Light / The Holocaust and Humanity Project and its impact.
    Tue., March 7, 7:15pm. Free.
    Congregation Agudas Achim
