FIVE BAY AREA CHOREOGRAPHERS—four of them Stanford alumni—created works for five “magical” campus locations in the May 28 performance, Red Rover. White-clad students wearing accessories in red danced and posed to direct the audience to the various performance sites. Composers Edward Schocker, Daniel Berkman and MFA candidate Cobi van Tonder contributed music. The show was a collaboration among the Stanford Institute on Creativity and the Arts, Stanford Lively Arts and the department of drama and dance, where professor Diane Frank taught a spring-quarter course about site-specific dance.
