Join TYP for a special night at the ballet as we experience Steps Forward — Ballet Tucson’s one-night-only choreographers’ showcase brimming with creativity and innovation. This unique program spotlights brand-new works created by current Ballet Tucson company members, choreographed specifically for their fellow dancers. Each piece is a fresh, original premiere, offering audiences the chance to witness artistic visions come to life for the very first time.
As part of the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to play an active role in the show’s future. At the end of the performance, audience members will cast their vote for their favorite work, and the winning piece will return for an encore presentation on Ballet Tucson’s mainstage later in the season. This interactive element not only makes for an exciting conclusion but also connects you directly to the creative process.
Beyond the beauty of the performance, Steps Forward serves as a vital career development platform for Ballet Tucson’s dancers. It allows them to expand their artistry, explore choreography as a creative outlet, and prepare for potential transitions within their careers. The program nurtures both their personal and professional growth while offering audiences a richer understanding of the craft.
The evening doesn’t end with the final curtain — stay for a special Q&A with the choreographers, moderated by Artistic Director Margaret Mullin. Hear directly from the artists about their inspirations, challenges, and the journey from concept to stage.🔗 More about Steps Forward
