Dancing on "The Pillow"
ECC Dance Department student Tzong-Han (Hanna) Wu's original choreographic work "Prosecutor On That Finger" is one of six pieces selected to participate in a prestigious national dance festival this summer. ECC was the only two-year college chosen from among 624 dances from American College Dance Association regional conferences from across the United States. The piece, danced by fellow ECC students Sunwoo Hong, Daniel Morales, and Son Lam Nguyen, will be presented this summer at the world-renowned Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Becket, Massachusetts. Jacob's Pillow is known as "the dance center of the nation" and is a National Historic Landmark. Wu's piece was chosen by the American College Dance Association's Professional Dance Panel at the Baja Region conference earlier this spring to move into consideration for this honor and was then chosen from 13 regions across the nation by the panel at The Pillow. Wu plans to transfer to California Institute of the Arts next year as a scholarship student.
