Enjoy works by three of America’s most recognized and acclaimed choreographers!
Twyla Tharp’s In the Upper Room is a tour-de-force of athleticism, built on a pulsating score by Philip Glass. William Forsythe’s contemporary masterpiece, In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated, is a high-voltage thrill ride that changed dance forever and became one of Forsythe’s signature works. KC native, David Parsons founded Parsons Dance and quickly was hailed as a master of contemporary dance. His world premiere ballet, A Play for Love, delivers a fanciful romp derived from Shakespeare’s most celebrated comedic characters.
