CSB: BAC - Colman Theater

This special Alum College Session features Word Dances: Poetry in Motion, a powerful, multi-sensory performance by CSB alumna Katie Bresnahan Bruckbauer ’80 and Barb Sinner Wieland ’80. Through expressive choreography, music, and spoken words, they bring selected poems from Katie’s book, Time to Soar: Word Dances and Bird Songs for Every Season, to life on stage. Inspired by the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi and the healing beauty of nature—especially birds—this performance offers a contemplative journey through the seasons of the human experience. Join fellow alums for an unforgettable artistic experience that uplifts the soul, opens the heart, and reminds us all of our shared humanity—and our enduring capacity to soar.
