Rice Dance Theatre is a group whose performances have continued to evolve and improve over the years, and this year is no exception. Building off the success of last semester's sold-out performance, this semester's Organic Motion is another step in the right direction for this troupe of modern dancers. Throughout the 13-dance performance, which celebrates the fluidity, joy, and inventiveness of motion and dance, the performers explore themes such as love, self-reflection, societal gender roles and interactions among peers.

Rice Dance Theater's fall 2012 production, Louder Than Words, was one of its best shows to date and truly a remarkable performance.

In the past, RDT had incorporated some modern elements of dance and performance that, while innovative, have not always made the show very approachable to the average attendee. Its latest production, however, featured performances and music spanning a variety of time periods and genres.

Combining Earth's elements, Spanish telenovelas, bright bold costumes and modern interpretive dance, Rice Dance Theater's Spring 2012 Production "Dancing Between the Lines" featured 12 masterful performances from all 23 of its company members. The show was a bit of a departure from RDT's Fall 2011 "Points of Contact" show, which featured more elements of modern dance, but was nevertheless quite enjoyable and perhaps more accessible to the casual audience member.
