Divergent Minds
"Divergent Minds" is a piece about mental illness. This piece shows how each dancer struggles to face their illness even when they have someone to support them. Each dancer goes through their own journey and experience throughout the piece. At times we can feel alone even when surrounded by other people. The negative stigma around mental illnesses can greatly affect someone that just wants to be treated like a normal human being. This piece became very personal for each dancer, and helped them to try to comprehend what others may be going through. This dance is performed by undergraduate dance majors from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania.
