Dancers' Symposium provides an open and supportive environment to further the exposure of dance, music, student choreography, and student performance at Carnegie Mellon University.
There are no requirements to audition; people of all backgrounds, cultures, majors, and genders are encouraged to participate. Diverse styles of choreography and lyrical content are encouraged.
One two-act show is produced each semester, consisting of staging, lighting, and student costume design. All performances are open to the public.
Furthermore, Dancers' Symposium seeks to be an active member of the university community by offering open dance classes taught by organization members and by working with local dance companies to bring additional classes and performances to campus. Dancers' Symposium is composed of dancers, choreographers, directors, and the dance community.
