The Tennessee Performing Arts Center has unveiled its 2024-25 International Dance Series, a captivating exploration of global dance traditions and innovations featuring four world-renowned dance companies.

This year the series will feature the Martha Graham Dance Company, the Paul Taylor Dance Company, Ballet Folklórico De México and The Joffrey Ballet. 

“Our International Dance Series is designed to transport audiences through the universal language of dance,” Jennifer Turner, TPAC’s president and CEO, said. “We are proud to present a season that not only showcases the diversity and beauty of dance, but also allows our audience to experience transformative performances from some of the most renowned dance companies in the world.”

Additionally, those buying the entire series will have access to tickets for the world premiere of New Dialect’s 21 Yeses, choreographed by Banning Bouldin with production design by Michael Brown. For this production, the Nashville dance company combines the practice of contemporary dance with lighting technologies borrowed from the concert industry.

Packages for the entire series are currently on sale at the box office, by visiting TPAC.org or calling (615) 782-4040.
