Dance On Screen: Four Short Films

Robert Steven Mack Productions presents the world premiere of Dancing Man, plus three original short films, in a meld of dance, music, and storytelling to showcase talent from across Indiana University and the photographic beauty of Bloomington.

A Q&A with the filmmakers and cast members will follow the screening and be moderated by Connie Shakalis, freelance arts writer for The Herald Times and other publications.

Dancing Man (Clarisse Gamblin and Robert Steven Mack, 2023, 23 min): David, a young and quixotic dancer, is confronted with the decision of whether to stay at a Midwestern ballet company with his new love interest Gabrielle or follow a promising choreographer to New York to chase his pipe dream of dancing in Golden Age musicals. Featuring vibrant cinematography, an elegant score by Yi-Chen Chiang, and toe-tapping choreography by Chris Lingner, Dancing Man showcases dancers from IU Ballet Theatre and Indianapolis Ballet in a colorful and bittersweet coming-of-age story.
