Dance Production

I'm certain other people have been posting about Dance Production, especially since a very large portion of the student body took part in it. I wanted to write a post about it specifically because I was NOT involved.
Dance Pro is something I love about Oxy, not because I love dance in any particular way, but because of the enormous amount of student participation there is, both in the dances and in the audience. I went to Dance Pro on Friday night, and the house was SOLD OUT. That means probably 800 people attended on the first night; I don't know about Saturday, but I think it's WAY COOL that so many people like to see Dance Pro.
I know from trying to schedule use of the dance studio that each group of dancers meets once or twice a week for the entire year, not just this semester. All of the dancers in the production this weekend had been attending rehearsals since fall last year.
So, just so you know...going to Dance Production is cool. Participating in Dance Production is cool. If you decide to come to Oxy, go to Dance Production and cheer on all your friends! That's what I do. :D
