The season continues with the fearless physicality of Montréal's RUBBERBAND, the joyous athleticism of New York City's Parsons Dance and concludes with the 20th Anniversary SPRING TO DANCE Festival 2027, the nationally recognized celebration of dance conceived by Dance St. Louis Artistic Director Michael Uthoff that has introduced hundreds of companies and thousands of artists to St. Louis audiences over the past two decades.

Together, the season's four presentations embody what has defined Dance St. Louis for more than six decades: bringing world-class dance to St. Louis, celebrating extraordinary artistry, introducing audiences to artists who challenge expectations and revealing the many ways dance can move, inspire and connect us.
