Centenary Stage Company in conjunction with Centenary College presents the talents of Carolyn Dorfman as the
featured guest artist at the Centenary Summer Dance Intensive. Known for taking her audiences on "intellectual
and emotional journeys", Carolyn Dorfman once again shares her energetic and provocative style with the
students of Centenary Stage Company’s third annual Summer Dance Intensive for dancers 13 and older.
About Carolyn Dorfman
Dorfman is a certified teacher of grade K-12 and holds a BFA in dance from the University of Michigan and
an MFA from New York University. She has taught for schools and dance companies throughout New Jersey and
the United States, including Limon Institute. She has created over 60 works for the Carolyn Dorfman Company
eleven-member ensemble, and her work has been hailed by critics as "ingenious" (Star Ledger)
and "emotionally resilient" (New York Times).
"I am delighted to be returning
to Centenary College to teach a master class this summer. Sharing my art and process in educational
and community settings is an integral part of my professional life. I began my teaching career at
Centenary College in 1980 and it was an extraordinary time and place for me to grow. I return with
gratitude, great memories and the promise of greater collaborations to come, including a CDDC performance
at Centenary in March 2012 and more."
