Pride, envy, gluttony, lust, wrath, greed and sloth will take the stage for this year鈥檚 student dance show, 鈥�7 Deadly Sins.鈥�

The inspiration for the show, choreographed by adjunct theatre lecturer JoEllen Kuhlman, came from the song 鈥淵oung and Beautiful鈥� by Lana Del Rey.

鈥淭he song sounded like pride to me,鈥� Kuhlman said. 鈥淔rom there, I thought of the seven deadly sins.鈥�

Performances of 鈥�7 Deadly Sins鈥� are at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Feb. 14-15, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 16, in the Anderson Center鈥檚 Chamber Hall. Tickets are $10 for general admission, $8 for faculty/staff/seniors and $6 for students with ID.

Seven female dancers will represent each of the sins, and male dancers are featured in some of the segments 鈭� such as lust, envy and pride 鈭� to help tell each story, Kuhlman said.

Katie Leenig, a sophomore majoring in industrial systems engineering and a dancer who represents 鈥減ride鈥� in the show, said 鈥�7 Deadly Sins鈥� is unique in that Kuhlman鈥檚 choreography presents the sins in a new way.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a relatable interpretation of the sins,鈥� Leenig said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not stereotypical pride or stereotypical gluttony. Instead, it鈥檚 a more relatable and realistic interpretation of the sins.鈥�

Brenden Gregory, a junior theatre major, agreed: 鈥淛o鈥檚 choreography has taken the essence of what each sin is, but presents it in a new way.鈥�

鈥淭he motions themselves are equivalent to that of the sin,鈥� added Nicole Dlug, a senior majoring in biology and dance, who represents 鈥渨rath鈥� in the show. 鈥淭he dance moves for wrath are equally as frustrated and angry as one would feel emotionally, and that鈥檚 a common theme throughout the show.鈥�

The movements are mainly a mix of modern and jazz, Kuhlman said.

The dancers also emphasized that costume, lighting and stage design will have an impact on the annual show.

Sarah Pogolwitz, a junior majoring in theatre/tech design and the stage manager for 鈥�7 Deadly Sins,鈥� said working with dancers was a great experience.

鈥淒ancers don鈥檛 stop,鈥� she said.

Leenig said she believes that with the combination of Kuhlman鈥檚 choreography, the dancers鈥� abilities and the technical design, the show is set to be unforgettable.

鈥淭he entire show is so visually dynamic and exciting,鈥� she said. 鈥淲hether you鈥檙e familiar with dance or not, it is so pleasing to the eye. All the elements together create such a spectacular show.鈥�

Gregory wants the audience to leave the Chamber Hall with an understanding and appreciation of how hard each person involved with 鈥�7 Deadly Sins鈥� has worked.

鈥淓veryone has put in a tremendous amount of commitment and effort, and it shows,鈥� Gregory said. 鈥淭his show is not just a show. It鈥檚 an experience. We pull you in from moment one 鈭� and don鈥檛 let you go until the last moment.鈥�
