BANDALOOP will be performing continuously during these times. Come when you like, stay as long as you like.
BANDALOOP honors nature, community, and the human spirit through perspective-bending, vertical dance. Using buildings on the UArizona Campus Mall as a dance floor on its side, BANDALOOP creates a new and original performance suited for the times we are all living in.
A pioneer in vertical performance, BANDALOOP seamlessly weaves dynamic physicality, intricate choreography, and climbing technology to turn the dance floor on its side. BANDALOOP’s site-reactive work has been presented worldwide in theaters and museums, on skyscrapers, bridges, billboards, and historical sites, in atriums and convention halls, in nature on cliffs, and on screen.
These experiences are part of the March 9-10 Reading Days. The faculty senate approved a decision to replace the 2021 Spring Break with a series of Reading Days spread throughout the Spring 2021 semester. This adjustment to the academic calendar is a necessary component of our ongoing commitment to limit the spread of COVID-19 in the Tucson community and across the nation by reducing travel by faculty, staff and students.
