PSU Presents: Rumors

PSU Student Dance Project

Friday, December 5, 2025 | 7:00pm

Elizabeth Cheney Studio Theatre

Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 album Rumors became a number-one hit in the U.S. and the U.K. and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time. Its songs mirror the band’s real-life relationships: “Dreams” reflects Stevie Nicks’ breakup with Lindsey Buckingham, “Go Your Own Way” confronts moving on, and “The Chain” celebrates their unbreakable bond.

This timeless mix of love, conflict, and resilience continues to resonate—and students will bring it to life on the dance floor as they perform to these iconic tracks.
