Dayton Contemporary Dance Company (DCDC) invites you to experience their 57th season, DANCING IN OUR LIGHT – a season that radiates joy of discovery, illuminates our best selves, and shines a spotlight on the Gem City’s soulful musical heritage. After nearly six decades, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company remains a beacon of artistic excellence and a source of pride in our fair city. Come bask in this light!
REFLECTIONS opens the 57th season and features two bright dance works that signify what it means to be uniquely and proudly African American. In February, DCDC shines a light on legacy with BLACK BY POPULAR DEMAND, dancing the soul-stirring, fan-favorite works that the Dayton community has made iconic. DANCING IN OUR LIGHT culminates spectacularly as Dayton Contemporary Dance Company and the Dayton Ballet unite for RHYTHM OF THE CITY. This dynamic partnering of Dayton’s best Dancers, in brand-new, built-to-order choreography, will be powered by the game-changing Dayton Funk sound that put the Gem City on the musical map.
