“The Walker Art Center and Southern Theater both play unique
roles in the local art ecology. The Walker propels local artists onto the
international stage; the Southern programs the most consistently
excellent schedule of local dance. Their partnership, then, on the
Momentum: New Dance Works series creates a remarkable platform
for presenting local artists here but also nationally and internationally.”

Providing a snapshot of Minnesota’s dance landscape,
Momentum illuminates the
skill and passion of the next generation’s most promising artists. Featuring two companies
each evening, Momentum showcases new voices and ideas that articulate the latest
combinations in dance while solidifying the Twin Cities as a hotbed of fresh, experimental
and under-the-radar (for now) talent.
