Wisconsin history and modern dance will light the stage at the River Arts Center in Prairie du Sac when Wild Space Dance Company takes to the stage at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 22. The cost is $15 to $20 for adult tickets and $5 for students.

Part of the program will feature selections from Map of Memories, performed at Danceworks in Milwaukee last May telling the story of the Polish immigrants who settled on Jones Island in Milwaukee in the middle of the nineteenth century.

The Wild Space Dance Company is one of Wisconsin's most creative performing companies. Its mission is to expand the audience for contemporary dance through performances and outreach programs.

The group will conduct workshops on Nov. 21 with all fourth graders in the Sauk Prairie School District to enhance their understanding of Wisconsin history and develop their problem solving and critical thinking skills.
