A World of Dance
Striving to train world-class dancers who meet the growing needs of the entertainment capital of the world.
Welcome
Located in the heart of Las Vegas, the department of dance strives to train world-class dancers who meet the growing needs of the entertainment capital of the world. The scope of the training exceeds the Las Vegas commercial dance form. The international exchanges, world-renowned guest artists, and high-caliber artistic training give UNLV’s students a global understanding of the art of dance. As a cultural center, the department of dance brings the residents of Las Vegas the highest caliber of artistic concert dance. UNLV is "A World of Dance!"
What's Happening
The concert features choreography by UNLV award-winning faculty and modern dance pioneer Erick Hawkins.
Told she was too tall to be a dancer, Dolly Kelepecz-Momot ignored naysayers and went on to a successful dance career, including 37 years (so far) teaching hundreds of UNLV students.
Start 2020 with Prokofiev's music, the Russian National Ballet, and the heartwarming story of Cinderella and the Prince, complete with her ugly step-family!
The concert is the fourth collaboration with the UNLV Symphony Orchestra.
Join the School of Music and departments of dance and theatre at the Barrick Museum of Art on Oct. 14 for a multi-disciplinary event recognizing Research Week.
