Deno Dance Company is comprised of several dancers that received their adult modern dance training at Purdue University. Many DDC dancers are alumni of the Purdue Contemporary Dance Company. In recent years DDC company members including Christy Carr, Nina Deno, and Andrea Ridge have had the opportunities to give back to PCDC by creating works for the company as Alumni Guest Artists. DDC continues to foster a supportive, collaborative relationship with PCDC and Purdue Dance Faculty.
