This year's performances also include works from guest artist Louis Kavouras, CSUF faculty members and students. New pieces by talented student choreographers Reyna Joy Banks, Michelle Estle, Joshua Romero and Valeri Fonseca will premiere, in addition to dance pieces created by CSUF faculty Robin E. Johnson and William F. Lett. With music by Frédéric Chopin, Richard Wagner, Steve Reich, Gordon Goodwin and many others, Spring Dance Theatre evokes many different worlds and moods through movement and music.
