This Sunday, witness the magic of Irish stepdancing with a performance by Heritage Irish Stepdancers. 🇮🇪

Heritage Irish Stepdancers will showcase their dancers competing at the Western Regional Championships, performing graceful soft shoe, rhythmic hard shoe, and traditional group dances. The show will finish with their award-winning dance drama, Jamie Freel and the Young Lady, which tells a traditional Irish folk tale through dance, music, and acting. Fun for the whole family!

Proceeds help the dancers attend the Western Regional Championships in Phoenix later this month!

We're thrilled to share HOLDTIGHT will be performing December 5 - December 7 at the Newman Center!

HOLDTIGHT - alone : un/tethered is a show about the miracles that arise when trying to hold seemingly contradictory concepts: magic vs logic, science vs story, nature vs human, alone vs together. Using dance, original live music, personal narrative with immersive and participatory elements, the audience explores how we are inextricably linked to each other and to the earth, even when we feel most alone. Led by founder Gwen Gussman, HOLDTIGHT is a non-profit based in Denver and has collaborated with over 50 acclaimed artists including Grammy and Emmy-award winners.

Come check out this exciting show next month! https://newmancenter.evenue.net/events/holdtight

In spite of a snowy weekend, we are happy to share we had an excellent show by Gabriel Kahane & Caroline Shaw on Saturday. The Newman Center was very proud to offer the world premier of 'Hexagons' - a new work co-commissioned by the Newman Center that is inspired by the magical realism of Argentine author Jorge Luis Borges’s 1939 short story, “The Library of Babel."

The show began with fun throwbacks of when Caroline Shaw and Gabriel Kahane first worked together in 2011 and then did a wonderful transition to Hexagons.

We hope you were able to make it and enjoy this show from 2 outstanding, award-winning artists!

After more than a decade of musical friendship, composer-performers Gabriel Kahane & Caroline Shaw have created Hexagons, a new work co-commissioned by the Newman Center, that is inspired by the magical realism of Argentine author Jorge Luis Borges’s 1939 short story, “The Library of Babel.” In this enigmatic narrative, Borges conjures a captivating and perplexing universe where the notion of infinity collides with the fragility of human understanding. Come see these two award-winning, talented artists as they grace the Hamilton Recital Hall stage on November 9th.
