Program includes nine dances - . • Dancers prepare for November production • • _ • j By Gretchen Boehr Senior Reporter Student and faculty dancers are in their fifth week of practice for the upcoming fall concert of the Lincoln Contemporary Dance Theatre. “The Masters Meet Modem” includes nine dances choreographed by faculty and students at the Univer sity of Nebraska-Lincoln and will be performed Nov. 2 through 5 at Howell Theatre. “To Have and Have Knot” is an example of some of the creatively choreographed and physically chal lenging pieces included in the con cert. This is a “trio” danced by Craig Ellingson, Melissa Mapcs-Raasch and a rope. The dancers are bound together at the wrist by an approxi mate four-foot length of rope and perform modern dance to Chopin’s Waltze in C sharp minor. Laura Milan, dance professor and choreographer for this piece, said the rope makes “To Have and Have Knot” especially challenging. “Craig and Melissa arc at the mercy with what happens with the rope,” she said. Mapcs Raasch and Ellingson said dancing with the rope had its surprises. During the dance they twist, turn and somersault over each Hl 0^ 6?1" C *t>£> ;| Tickets: $13, $9 A Mid-America Arts Alliance program with the support of the ! | Nebraska Arts Council and the National Endowment for the ArU.

Another dance choreographed by Milan is “The BelleTolls For You.” In this piece the only female dancer, Cary Twomey, never touches the ground during the entire dance which lasts about seven minutes. Twomey is lifted from one man to another as the six male dancers take turns falling at her feet. Twomey said it was sometimes hard to trust the men. i This group of dancers needs to be | in unity at all times, Milan said. “The male dancers have to know where she is at all times,’ ’ Milan said, “because her safety relies on them.” “Some nights, it’s really easy and other nights it’s difficult,” Twomey said. Twomey said she could feel how focused they were by the way they lifted her. Milan said she had to go out and recruit strong men for this dance. As a result, the male dancers are at all levels of learning. “Some of them have only had three dance classes,” Milan said. In fact, Twomey and Mark Ja ---— ————————■ FOR SALE >400 Baud IBM Compatible Modem ptu* Software $80. 177-6463._ ___ I foot couch, excellent oondition. $150.466-4257 after 5.

Milan said one thing that made it difficult to recruit men for this dance was a prejudice against dance lor men. It still is thought of as sissy or feminine for men to dance, she said. “I think the strength and coordi nation needed for dance is more than is needed for football,’ Milan said. Iliya Azaroff, one of the male dancers, agreed. “It definitely helps your bal ance,” he said. Azaroff, a junior music major, said this is his first dance perform ance. “This is something I’ve always wanted to do all my life and never had a chance to,” he said. This also is the first performance for Joe Davis, a member of the ROTC. “I just wanted to learn how to dance,” Davis said. The music for “The Belle lolls For You” is Mozart’s Clarinet Con ccrto in A. Ellingson, John Warren and Brian Irons are the other dancers in this piece. Ellingson, a senior music theater performance major, also will perform in the piece he choreographed, “Out To Play Again,” to Mozart’s Horn Concerto in E Hat. “This is about a little boy in a park imagining things and people,” he >aiu. Originally “Out To Play Again was to different music, he said. “But this classical music ex panded my ideas for the dance, Ellingson said. The Concerto is very lively, bouncy and playful, Ellingson said. Mapes-Raasch, a senior dance major, said the dance she choreo graphed, “A Canon Study,” is like a dance in the round. “The dancers are all about one count behind each other,’ she said. “A Canon Study” is to the music of Pachelbel’s Canon in D major. Mapes-Raasch also is the chore ographer and director of Orchesis, a UNL dance group. 'Some of the dancers are in more than one dance in ‘ ‘The Masters Meet Modem,” Milan said, and practice is a big commitment. Juggling classes, jobs, practice and outside dance activities can be come a challenge, the dancers said. Depending on which dances they are in, the students spend anywhere from nine to 15 hours a week in prac tice. The dancers said they had become friends since they were together so much. Azaroff said dance has be come his social life since he wasn’t a dance major. Faculty choreographers and danc ers arc Nancy Curtis Brestel, Milan, Jill Lile and Dee Hughes.
