Join us as we close our season with a musical feast—literally! Our final concert, FEAST!, pairs amazing music with the flavors of the metro. With spicy selections like Wine Dark Sea, Party Potatoes (yes, you heard that right — a tuba concerto about potatoes), and Godzilla Eats Las Vegas, we’re serving up a musical menu like nothing you’ve ever experienced before.
Following the concert, join us in the lobby to sample our complimentary After Show Menu.
Get ready for a pulse-pounding celebration of dance music from across the globe! This vibrant program features music by Philip Sparke (Great Britain), Jacques Press (Russia), and Jan Van der Roost (Belgium), bringing rhythms and traditions from around the world to life on one unforgettable concert.
From the fiery drive of the Russian Sailors Dance to the spirited snap of a Scottish Reel and the joyful exuberance of the Wedding Dance, this high-energy performance is packed with motion, color, and excitement. You’ll be on the edge of your seat—and you might even find yourself dancing in the aisles!
Join us for an evening where music moves you—literally.
