Be transformed by dance.

Performed by the acclaimed ensemble Dance Repertory Theatre, "Catalyst" brings unique and compelling dance works by nationally renowned choreographers to the stage. A highlight of the concert includes Israeli choreographer Ohad Naharin’s sharp and humorous "Minus 16". Breaking down barriers between performers and audience, "Minus 16" captivates with dynamic movement and music. The University of Texas at Austin is pleased to be the first university granted permission to perform "Minus 16" in its entirety. Other work in "Catalyst" includes the world premiere of David Justin’s "Oblivion's Ink", a contemporary ballet created to the music of Jazz trumpeter and composer Dave Douglas. Charles O. Anderson’s "Rite", inspired by the writings of the late American science fiction writer Octavia Butler, captures the shifting social, economic and ecological climates of the 21st century.

Presented by The University of Texas at Austin Department of Theatre and Dance
