Minnesota Dance Theatre & the Dance Institute

Performance Calendar - Spring 2012


Since its founding by Loyce Houlton, Minnesota Dance Theatre has had the driving force of presenting Dance That Dares. Reflecting its intense and energetic pulse, relying on and defying tradition and creating a body and style of work, we celebrate our existence as we approach the rare milestone of our 50th anniversary.

And we continue to pursue great dance and its infinite possibilities. With the privilege of exploring groundbreaking, demanding new work, the remainder of the 2011-2012 season offers one regional premiere and a dizzying array of incomparable dances from our repertoire.
