Hubbard Street Dance Chicago (HSDC) will present Fall Series: RE/TURN to herald its return to the stage at the Harris Theater, 205 E. Randolph St.
The program will feature new premieres as well as audience favorites that celebrate the very essence of contemporary dance. These will be the company's first performances under the leadership of Artistic Director Linda-Denise Fisher-Harrell, a former dancer with the company who was named to this position in March 2021.
Award-winning artist Jermaine Maurice Spivey will make his HSDC and Chicago debut with a world premiere, alongside world-renowned Spanish choreographer Nacho Duato's Jardí Tancat and the Hubbard Street premiere of Aszure Barton's BUSK.
The Fall Series has performances Thursday, Nov. 18, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Nov 20, at 8 p.m.; and Sunday, Nov. 21, at 3 p.m. Tickets for Fall Series: RE/TURN at the Harris Theater go on sale Oct. 22. They can be purchased at harristheaterchicago.org or by calling 312-334-7777, and range from $15 to $110. To demonstrate Hubbard Street's commitment to making the arts accessible to all, a number of $15 tickets are available for every performance this season, with more than 1,000 Hubbard Street tickets set at this special $15 price this year.
COVID protocols will be followed.
