Join us for the first dance event of 2026- the debut of Gonzaga Dance’s new story ballet created and choreographed by Founding Chair Suzanne Ostersmith! Leading characters are performed by our Gonzaga Dance students while supporting roles incorporate local youth dancers. This retelling of Thumbelina is a fun and inspiring performance for all. The performance also features new original compositions by Gonzaga Alum Nic Marshall.
Enjoy the variety of work presented by the Student Choreography Class of Spring 2026. This concert is sure to impress as students showcase creativity, vision, and leadership through completed dance works performed by students.
Bizet's Carmen has seen countless interpretations over the past 150 years, but never one like this. Acclaimed choreographer Gustavo Ramírez Sansano brings this full-length ballet to the stage, inspired by tauromaquia—the art of bullfighting— breathing a modern life into this legendary character.
Gonzaga Dance's annual Spring Dance Concert is the culminating event of our dance season. This program will feature works choreographed by Gonzaga Dance faculty and Guest Artists set on current students in the program. Works will cross multiple genres including ballet, modern, hip hop and jazz.
