VISION: an Evening of Dance

In partnership with Tanner Dance

Created in celebration of the Bicentennial Celebration of the First Vision, the VISION dance concert explored the moving body as a source of creation, inspiration and imagination through a broad range of choreographic works brought to life on the stage.

More than 70 dancers and 11 choreographers joined from from all over the U.S. in this tremendous performance.

The concert featured works from eleven Latter-day Saint choreographers and the works, themselves, considered tenets of faith – both physically embodied, and culturally understood.
