Fusing butoh dance theater, hip-hop mixology, new music, and multimedia,the Vermont premiere of time/life/beauty by Michael Sakamoto and Paul D. Miller (aka DJ Spooky) is inspired by the legacy of famed composer-musician and activist Ryuichi Sakamoto (1952–2023). Inspired by the variety and mystery of Ryuichi’s music, interdisciplinary collaborations, and environmental and anti-war commitments, time/life/beauty looks at the past, present, and future of acute cultural, social, and ecological themes in our historical moment.

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.
