SUMMARY:FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY
DESCRIPTION:In a rigid future where creativity is forbidden\, students at The Kube Conservatory for Optimal Development wear neural cubes that control their thoughts and confine their movements to a lifeless grid. But when a group of curious students sneaks out late at night\, they discover a mysterious portal—guarded by the mesmerizing Neptala—who dares them to imagine something more. \nEach journey through the portal transports them to electrifying eras where movement is liberation and dance is rebellion. With every step\, they awaken to the power and peril of freedom. Now\, as Neptala warns that the portal will open one final time\, the students must make a choice: return to a life of comfort and conformity\, or leap into a world that is uncertain—but alive. FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY is a bold\, imaginative dance production that explores control\, courage\, and the transformative power of movement. Don’t miss this one-night-only performance.

SUMMARY:Renewal
DESCRIPTION:Renewal invites audiences into the process of reconstructing “lost” dance works\, offering a rare\, up-close look at how choreography is preserved\, reshaped\, and passed forward. \nFeaturing an intergenerational cast of local performers\, the program highlights selections from seldom-seen dances by visionary Minnesota choreographer Loyce Houlton—including the intimate Troth (1969) and the monumental Song of the Earth (1977). This deconstructed performance reinterprets historic works in real time through a blend of live dance\, film\, and dialogue. \nLoyce Houlton (1925–1995) transformed the Twin Cities’ dance landscape\, creating opportunities for countless local artists. Beyond her enduring Nutcracker Fantasy\, she choreographed more than 100 dances.

SUMMARY:Inner Connectivity\, Outer Expressivity
DESCRIPTION:At Young Dance\, each year is guided by a central theme. Last year’s theme\, Mind:Body\, proved so expansive and meaningful that we dedicate another year to its exploration. Even as our themes evolve\, the mind-body connection will remain a foundation for theory and practice throughout our classes and organization. \nThis season\, we’re embracing “Inner Connectivity\, Outer Expressivity\,” a concept drawn from the work of Rudolf Laban and Irmgard Bartenieff. This theme invites us to examine the vital link between our inner world—thoughts and feelings—and physical expression. By cultivating this inner harmony\, we unlock greater ease and authenticity in communicating ourselves to the world. \nOur exploration will be driven by two simple but powerful questions: Why? and How? Guest choreographers Lainey Lee\, Gretchen Pick\, Judee Shuǐ Xiān\, and Laurie Van Wieren investigated these questions with the company as they developed original new works with the Young Dance Performing Company. \nThe Young Dance company is a group of passionate dancers committed to exploring themselves and their world through dance. Dancers ages 7 to 18 work with professional artists to investigate and collaborate on choreography related to the year’s theme and present their work in a high-quality\, innovative performance. \nDancers from Young Dance’s All Abilities Dancing 2\, Breaking 2\, Hip Hop 2\, Modern 4\, and Choreography classes will also present work on this program.

CDP2\, the pre-professional company of Crash Dance Productions\, reimagines this beloved work\, originally performed in 2014\, with new perspectives\, including student-choreographed works\, and premieres by guest choreographers Alexander Hille and Sandy Strangis.
