The company will return to Newport, Yonkers, and Lenox.
Tom Gold Dance, the New York-based classical dance company founded by former New York City Ballet soloist Tom Gold, will bring its signature blend of original choreography and musicality to three Northeast venues this summer.
The company is set to appear at the Newport Dance Festival in Rhode Island from July 18–20, Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, MA on August 2, and Untermyer Park and Gardens in Yonkers, NY on September 20.
At the Newport Dance Festival, Tom Gold Dance will present By a Waterfall, set to music by Russian jazz composer Alexander Tsfasman, and excerpts from Le Voyage, a work featuring songs by Michel Legrand and other French film composers. The company debuted By a Waterfall in November 2023 and premiered Le Voyage in full during its Spring 2024 season in New York.
The Lenox performance will mark Tom Gold Dance’s return to Shakespeare & Company’s Rose Footprint Theatre for the first time since 2020, where the full-length Le Voyage will be presented. Pianist Matthew Sheens and jazz vocalist Olivia Chindamo—who both performed during the premiere—will provide live accompaniment.
The company will also return for the fifth consecutive year to Yonkers’ Untermyer Park and Gardens, with a new program to be announced. The outdoor performance will take place in the Amphitheater of the Walled Garden.
Featured dancers scheduled to appear include Emily Cardea, Harrison Coll, Brian Gephart, and Cara Seymour—all of whom originated roles in Le Voyage. New York City Ballet’s Kennard Henson is also set to join the Lenox program.
