The event is free and is not ticketed. The event is not sold out. 

Assistant Professor of Theatre & Dance at Bucknell University Jaruam Xavier will present a concert dance work that combines the lively rhythms of samba and the fluid agility of capoeira with contemporary dance. Through grounded footwork, circular movements and shared momentum, it celebrates Brazilian heritage by reimagining traditional elements on a modern stage. The piece will feature guitarist Luiz Barcellos, a lecturer at Penn State University. 

Jaruam Xavier said, “The experience is deeply embedded in my memories and body, serving as a performance that aims to evoke sacredness and spirituality. Its goal is to elevate consciousness and articulate the sacred language of the present moment.”

Atrium Lobby doors open one hour prior to showtime and Concert Hall seating begins 30 minutes before performance time.
