ELON — The Elon University dance performance and choreography class of 2024 will premiere its senior thesis performance, “Dreamscape: Reveries of another time,” on Friday and Saturday, May 3 and 4.
Under the company name Nexus Movement Collective, the 12 seniors have collaborated to create the show, the final production for the senior class after four years of performing at Elon University.
“Dreamscape: Reveries of another time” is inspired by the mysterious and fantastical landscape of nostalgia, nightmares and the shared human experience of realizing and pursuing one’s dreams.
Student choreographer Olivia Lanter stated, “The process of creating such a special culmination concert as a collective is an exceptional experience. Exploring the unique expansiveness of the dreamscape with my fellow seniors is unforgettable and unmatched.”
The show aims to leave a lasting impression, inspiring individuals to embrace their dreams, confront their nightmares and appreciate the beauty of shared journeys, Lilly Beaver and Maya Simmons said.
Shows will be at 7:30 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday in Roberts Studio Theatre on West Haggard Avenue on the university campus in Elon.
