Fall for Dance: Choose Your Own [Dance] Adventure | Multiple dates
Fall for Dance: Choose Your Own [Dance] Adventure | Multiple dates
This September, the Fall for Dance Festival returns to NY City Center for its 21st season of bringing the best in dance from all over the world, and we'll be there to see not one, but three of this year's programs!
This year's lineup is too good to limit ourselves to seeing just one program as in the past, so this is the first year that you have the chance to choose their own [dance] adventure by joining a small group of fellow dance lovers on either September 18th, 25th and/or 29th!
We have just four tickets available on each of these dates, so this will be a great opportunity to pick the date(s)/time(s) that work best with your schedule and connect with a smaller group of members over dinner or drinks (or a free dance class!) before the show. Each program features a diverse mix of genre-defying dance and the opportunity to see three unique dance companies, choreographers and dancers all in one performance!
Scroll down to see the full details for each of the three performances. Please note:
All orders here include a seat with the group in the front Mezzanine.
While no formal group dinner will be planned, you will be connected to your fellow attendees in 2-3 days in advance in case you would like to arrange plans to meet before the show amongst your group, as well as some recommended places to try nearby.
More details on picking up the tickets for that evening will also be included in the pre-event email, so be sure to save alex@womenofculture.org to your contacts!
