Interrupting our regular scheduled Gratitude series to give you the most important announcement – our Associate and Emerging Artists are having a FREE show…yes, you heard that correctly, FREE! Which means, 0 excuse not to come and support our 8 favorites as they have worked for the past few months putting together this incredible showing.

Located at the dance center at Columbia College, these dancers are showing six pieces of repertoire from SCDT. While the Main Company was off touring for two weeks in Korea & Vietnam, our Emerging and Associate Artists were utilizing the studio space in Chicago, learning and rehearsing all six pieces for the show.

Most of the pieces you’ve seen before at previous Season 5, 6, or 7 home season shows. Some of these artists have even been involved in the original cast of the works! Of course they bring all the energy, power, and grace that SCDT always brings and we are so proud of them. As a Main Company dancer, I just have to say that the couple of pieces we’ve been able to view ahead of time look extraordinary and have an AMAZING energy to them. We are ultra supportive of our friends and peers and can’t wait to watch them shine on December 14!

I mean it – don’t miss it! It’s free, it’s at Columbia college, and it’s another chance to see some of your favorite pieces from throughout the seasons!
