The dance department at UNLV will unveil its spring dance concert, "In the Air," at 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 28 in the Judy Bayley Theatre on the UNLV campus. The show also will be presented at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Saturday, March 1. Tickets are $10 general admission, $5 for seniors and military, free to UNLV students with valid I.D., and can be purchased at the Performing Arts Center Box Office or by calling 895-ARTS (2787).

"In the Air" will showcase the work of dance department chair Louis Kavouras, faculty members Cathy Allen, Victoria Dale, Lon Gordon, Margot Mink Colbert, Tammy and Rick Pessagno, Carole Rae, and UNLV dance students.

"Icarus" by Kavouras is a kinetic exploration of flight, confinement, isolation, ecstasy, freedom, and man's desire to soar.

Gordon's piece, "Apr?s L'ond?e/Vetiver: Paradox, Rush ...Kiss," is in five cinematic sections and evokes the essence of moments and experiences including melancholy, venom, mystery, unadorned beauty, stoicism, discretion, solitude, lightning, warm breath, sultry wind, surprise, yearning, and the instant of a kiss.

Mink Colbert's ballet, "CIRCUS," will feature live music by UNLV professor Stephen Caplan and is an imaginative interpretation of the circus including ringmasters, a parade, trapeze, elephants and ponies.

"The Bus Stop," choreographed by Rick and Tammy Pessagno, is a combination and collaboration of the disciplines of dance, acting, and improv.
