Choreographer David Dorfman explores the vulnerability, virtuosity and mortality of daily life in Come, and Back Again at the Kay Theatre at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center November 1 and 2 at 8 pm.

Dorfman plays the role of both dancer and saxophonist in this striking work that contemplates how time and memory influence and define our changeable human existence.
