TOUHILL PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
In spring 2008 Dance St. Louis tried something that had never been done in the Midwest before, and audiences went wild! Over three action-packed nights, dozens of dance companies from all over the region converged on the Touhill. There were dancers from world-famous companies like Chicago’s Joffrey Ballet and outstanding regional troupes like Cleveland’s Dancing Wheels, doing jazz, flamenco, cutting-edge contemporary, ballet, hip-hop—all for only $10 per night. We’re bringing SPRING TO DANCE back in 2009. It’ll be the best of the Midwest—and even more!
Tickets will go on sale in spring 2009.
