The show spotlights a troupe of pre-teen competitive dancers who are plotting to take over the world. But in this raucous pageant of ambition and drive, these young dancers have more than choreography on their minds. Every sequence is a move toward self discovery and empowerment.
Dance Nation has been described as “refreshingly unorthodox” in its exploration of youth dance culture and its effects on adolescent bodies and minds. Among other questions, the show asks audiences to consider the demands we place on young females participating in competitive dance and how this shapes our attitudes and values about identity.”
