Dance troupe to perform Friday
By Dennis Ellermeier.
"You can destroy a lot of myths about
a people, evoke a sense of sympathy,
through dance," says choreographer
dancer George Faison.

. dance troupe will be performing,

"Mm-using it (dance) as a tool to-bring n
black people closer to others and to ,
snow we are a loving, understanding
people. . . You can break through the
language barrier. People can overcome
it through body expression. It doesn't
take words. That's why w6 call the
company the Universal Dance Exper
if nee "
The Universal Dance Experience was .
established in 1971 by Faison after three
successful years as a principal dancer
with the Alwin Ailey American Dance
Theater.
Faison has never lost sight of the
communitive powers of dance. "Danc
ing for dancing's sake is not what I'm
about." As artistic director, he has
aimed the company towards an expres
sion of ihe black experience in America.
"I saw a performance of a dance
company while in college and it seemed
to me to be . the ultimate form of
.expression," Faison said. At the age of
i 21 he made the decision to pursue dance
professionally and went to New York.
Five years later he formed his own
company.
Mmong the troupe's activities here
are a feelecture demonstration tonight
at 8 p.m. in the Women's Physical
Education Bldg. and a formal concert at
Kimball Recital Hall Friday at 8 p.m.
Tickets for the performance Friday are
$2 for UNL students and $3 for all
others.
This event is sponsored by the
Cultural Affairs Committee.
