The UNK Dance Department has been hard at work preparing their spring dance concert. The production featured astonishing work by faculty members as well as select students.
According to the UNK website, âRESET speaks to finding breath in the chaotic, isolating and often disheartening, seeking instead opportunities for new insights and self-reflection in a moment of growth.â
The concert featured 19 performers from UNK, along with student and faculty designers. There were 12 pieces presented in total, including the Community Project/Solo Series.
Faculty choreographers include Noelle Bohaty, the director of the dance program, and Leslie Abegglen, a dance faculty member. Student choreographers include Allyson Fricke, Hannah Petersen, Rebekah Petersen, Emma Newman, Morgan Wadkins-Meyer and Julia Young.

The Hope Tank is a mobile hygiene service vehicle, created by Adrienne and Emmanuel Threatt of Hope Vibes.
A YouTube video changed Adrienne Threatt’s life.
“A homeless woman was sharing about dealing with her menstrual cycle while living on the streets,” Threatt said. “And she would have to often decide whether she was going to use her limited resources to buy food that week or feminine hygiene products.”
Threatt was moved. She shared the video with friends and her husband, Emmanuel. Soon, she was moved to action with the help of Emmanuel and volunteers. They passed out feminine hygiene products to homeless women in Charlotte.
