Expanding the Careers in Dance Course

The University of Arizona’s School of Dance is excited to announce the expansion of our Careers in Dance program. This update aims to provide students with real-world experiences, industry-specific tools, and comprehensive mentorship to better prepare them for successful professional dance careers.

 

Welcoming Pearl Rea as Theatre and Facilities Manager

We are thrilled to welcome Pearl Rea as the new Theatre and Facilities Manager at the School of Dance. With a long and impressive history of herding artistic cats, Pearl brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our team. She has toured with numerous dance companies, including Paul Taylor Dance Company, Ailey 2, and Shapiro and Smith Dance, to name just a few. For the past 15 years, Pearl has served as Director of Production at the prestigious Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, where she flawlessly executed countless performances by established icons like Merce Cunningham and Bill T Jones, as well as up-and-coming artists. Despite leaving behind the cold temps and snow of Minneapolis, Pearl is excited to work with our amazing team to help prepare the young dancemakers of tomorrow. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have her on board!
