The library will begin its summer Lassalle Dance Lecture Series with a presentation by Gretchen Ward Warren on her new book, Hollow Bone: A Naïve Wanderer’s Journey from Outback to Opening Night on Tuesday, July 23, at 7 p.m. For her illustrated presentation at the library, Ms. Warren will share the experiences that led to the creation of Hollow Bone and speak about her greater mission of educating others about indigenous rights. She will read excerpts from the book as well as share videos of her dance production. Her story shows how when the world of classical ballet collides with the rhythmic heartbeat of indigenous dance, a transformative journey emerges. Copies of the book will be available for purchase through Eight Cousins Bookstore at the talk. Ms. Warren has previously published two books about classical ballet – her professional and academic discipline – but this book centers on an extraordinary three-year period in her life that began with a journey to Australia for her Fulbright program and ended with the production of a large, campus wide, cross-cultural event.
