From: Mutual Dance Theatre and Arts Centers HartwellWATCH THE 24-25 SEASON TRAILER
This season, Mutual Dance Theatre and the Jefferson James Contemporary Dance Theater Series emphasize the vastness of the Modern and Contemporary Dance genre, calling it a "season of opposites." From nature to nurture, from Belgium to India, from the west coast to the mid-west, from hot to cool: our 24-25 season is chock-full of don't-miss moments. We also celebrate sharing west coast dance with you for the first time in over a decade, as well as the largest resident Mutual Dance Theatre company we've had in also over a decade. So jump in, grab your season subscriptions, and see you in October!

For the first time ever, Mutual Dance Theatre brings guests Blue13 Dance Company (Artistic Director, Achinta S. McDaniel) from Los Angeles to Cincinnati. Blue13 is rhythmic, charged, and moody, like nothing you’ve ever seen before and drawing often from Indian art forms.

In MDT’s beloved and consistently sold-out studio series, Up-Close in 2024 juxtaposes nature and nurture. Selene is a new world where we witness the building of a moon and its energizing power (Trezon Dancy, InPulse Dance), while if you need me explores how nurture and the balance of reliance vs. independence have profound effects (Ana Hart, Mutual Dance Theatre).
