Associate Professor Abby Zbikowski's company Abby Z and the New Utility earned a 5 star review from the Guardian for her work "Radioactive Practice" presented in association with Dance Umbrella UK, a cutting-edge dance production house in London at Sadler's Wells Theatre, October 18-19, 2024. The performance featured three Ohio State Dance alumni, Fiona Lundie (MFA 2012), Jennifer Meckley (MFA 2013), Ishmael Konney (MFA 2023) and current second year MFA candidate Ben Roach. In addition, Assistant Professor Momar Ndiaye served as dramaturg on this work, and it featured original music from Ohio State Dance Accompanist Matthew Peyton Dixon.

Please join us in congratulating Zbikowski for this huge milestone in her career as a dance artist/educator and her company for putting Ohio State Dance front and center on a very important international stage.
