The Dance Company Middlebury Pre-Semester Workshop is an immersive introduction to the season’s creative process, centered on the question What is a body? Dancing Outside the Lines. Dancers engage in a rigorous and exploratory practice that moves between structure and exploration, working collaboratively to build, reshape, and refine movement. The workshop establishes a shared language and creative approach for the ensemble.
The workshop is open to all students. Participation is required for dancers selected to be part of Dance Company Middlebury.

Before each show, Box Office Manager Leeeza Robbins emails everyone in a dance or theatre class so they can order comps in advance. Complimentary tickets are NOT available on the day of the performance.
Everyone enrolled in a dance or theatre class, as well as dance majors, may get a total of one comp ticket for each program-sponsored performance.
If a student is participating in a dance, they can get a total of two tickets.
Tickets are NOT cumulative—each student can receive only up to two tickets per show, no matter their involvement.
The only exception is if the student is doing their senior work; Leeeza will work with the student directly for up to four (4) tickets per performance.
If the student has any questions about the policy, email the Box Office Manager Leeeza Robbins at robbinsl@middlebury.edu.
The Dance Department works closely with Middlebury’s Performing Arts Series (PAS), Vermont’s longest-running performance series. In addition to sharing our spaces, PAS brings notable dance artists to campus who often join our classes and interact with our students and faculty.
