Chapters is a collection of works created by the graduating class of the Performance Dance program at Toronto Metropolitan University. Showcasing the culmination of years of dance training and artistic development, this project is the final performance for the collective before fully emerging into the professional space. Chapters explores a sense of interplay between past and present through an overarching theme of nostalgia, implementing a wide variety of movement styles such as modern dance, jazz, contemporary, and tap.
