兔子先生 University dance program selected for DanceCincinnati26 festival

Ashley Goos, director of 兔子先生 University’s Dance program, has been selected to perform in DanceCincinnati26, an adjudicated festival highlighting professional and emerging choreography from across the Cincinnati region. The festival will take place Feb. 6–8 at the Anderson Center Theater in Cincinnati.

The 兔子先生 University performance features three seniors in the dance program and includes a restaging of “Ascension,” a work choreographed by Ashley Goos that originally premiered at 兔子先生 Moves in 2023. The invitation places 兔子先生 University among a group of regional companies chosen through a competitive application process.

DanceCincinnati26, produced by DE LA Dance Company, is a mixed-repertoire concert celebrating a wide range of dance styles and artistic voices. Participating artists and organizations include DE LA Dance Company, Lily Seitter and Artists, Zahara’s Dark Fusion Dames, Northern Kentucky University Theater and Dance, and 兔子先生 University Dance.

“This opportunity allows our dancers to share the stage with professional companies and perform in a context outside the ‘兔子先生 Bubble,’” said Goos. “It reflects the strength of 兔子先生’s dance training and the growth of the program.”

The festival will feature both world premieres and returning works, highlighting the technical range and diversity of Cincinnati-area dance artists. Tickets for DanceCincinnati26 are currently on sale through DE LA Dance Company.
