The Bernstein Experience

Charl-Johan Lingenfelder, conductor; Will run through 4/22/2018; Matthew Wild, director; Louisa Talbot, choreographer

The University Symphony Orchestra takes center stage under the direction of Mark Russell Smith and treats us to Bernstein’s quintessential melodies from “On the Town,” “On the Waterfront,” and more. The evening showcases choreographer Larry Keigwin’s refreshing vision of dance—a blend of Broadway and club styles with contemporary wit, heart, and theatrical flair. With movement and music on stage together, this delightful program pays tribute to Bernstein’s impact on American dance and culture.
