We have not yet had the opportunity to interview the Cornell University Dance Program, if you are associated with the Cornell University Dance Program please have someone from the program email us at Brittany@BDancewear.com to set up an interview (only takes a few minutes and it’s free).
In the meantime here is some quick insights about this Cornell University Dance Program from their website.
Cornell University’s Department of Performing and Media Arts offers opportunities for students with varied interests — in criticism, film production, theatre, acting, directing, theatre and media history, screenwriting, dancing, film, media, sound design, lighting, costumes, multimedia work or international media and theatre work. At the same time, our faculty are involved in leading-edge initiatives ranging from theatre and media production and design to the study of cinema/media and theatre/performance. Faculty members in the Department of Performing and Media Arts work collaboratively within the department and across campus as they lead students in critical study of performance and media. Along with distinguished publication and editing credits, Cornell faculty have directed on Broadway, written Pulitzer Prize-nominated plays, received Emmy nominations, worked with the Actor’s Gang in Los Angeles, choreographed and toured with international dance companies, designed scenes for theatres across the country and founded international theatre companies. The Department of Performing and Media Arts provides opportunities for students to explore theatre, film, and dance as distinct art forms, or to combine these disciplines in exciting ways. Whether students choose to major, minor, or enroll in select classes, they can integrate work in acting and film, theatre and television, dance and light, new media and sound.
