Concerto Dance returns to the Southern Theater with a vibrant evening of modern and jazz dance. The program features repertory work by Steve Rooks, former principal dancer with the Martha Graham Company, honoring the 100th anniversary of Martha Graham, alongside the rhythmic and dynamic work of visiting guest artist Joe Chvala. Artistic Director Jolene Konkel premieres two new jazz dance works, including Jamboree—a high-energy, joy-filled celebration bursting with music and movement that is sure to uplift audiences. The evening concludes with Konkel's Sweet Thunder Suite, a bold new work inspired by Shakespeare’s women and the stories they might have told if given a voice.

Featuring: Hunter Batterson, Morgen Chang, Malia Craft, Allison Durham, Maddy Harper, Sara Karimi, Helena Magalhães, MiKayla Scherping, Kate Sebes, Nate Stevens, Brandyn Tapio, and guest artists Karla Grotting, Heather Klopchin, and Annie Potts.
