The Theater UCSB season continues with Breakthrough, the UC Santa Barbara Department of Theater and Dance's annual spring program of original choreography from UCSB students and faculty members.

The diverse program of Breakthrough reflects depth of the student training at UCSB under the tutelage of faculty choreographers:


"Pendulum", choreographed by Sarah Forman, explores the notion of finding peace in solitude.

Choreographed by Peter Cheng, "Vicissitudes" offers a meditation on the experiences of an individual encountering a crippling obstacle.

"Menace to Society", choreographed by Summre Gill Curry, is inspired by her research in the field of deviant behaviors.

Falling leaves, a park bench, and an old tree stump set the autumnal scene for "Crossing Paths", choreographed by Amanda Hoffman. The piece reveals the journey of one man and one woman toward each other.

"Apocalypse Please" was inspired by the cinematic doomsday genre, and the power these films hold to stir fears of apocalyptic events occurring in real life.

"Anemone", choreographed by UCSB faculty member Christopher Pilafian, focuses on a personal journey through memory and transformation.

Early modernism meets post-modernism in the chunky, propulsive "Circuits", choreographed by UCSB faculty member Christopher Pilafian.
