Definitely Human Theatre and The CENTER for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck present Clare Barron’s DANCE NATION.
Everyone is nice.
Everyone is vulnerable.
And everyone is trying their hardest.
Somewhere in America, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plots to take over the world. And if their new routine is good enough, they’ll claw their way to the top at Nationals in Tampa Bay. An unorthodox play about ambition, growing up, and how to find our souls in the heat of it all.
*Content/Sensory Warnings: DANCE NATION contains coarse language, depictions of self-harm, simulated masturbation, descriptions of masturbation, sex and sexual violence and moments of intense lighting and loud, sudden noises.
Featuring Patrick Dougherty, Emily McCarthy, Camilla Motolinia, Connie Lee, Michael Friary, Mia DeYoung, Madison Cannella, Tori Lopez, and Hanna Hertzler.
