GroundWorks DanceTheater at Allen Theater Friday October 26 & Saturday October 27 at 7:30pm Free Beer Friday following Friday’s performance Dessert Reception following Saturday’s performance
GroundWorks DanceTheater celebrates new beginnings during its 20th Anniversary Season and marks the company’s next chapter with its Fall 2018 Dance Series. The upcoming season features dynamic new talent, the revivals of two critically-acclaimed works, as well as a world premiere by Founding Artistic Director David Shimotakahara, who will debut his 43rd new work for the company.
GroundWorks 2018 Fall Series features the world premiere of a dynamic new project created in partnership with the Akron Art Museum and funded by a Knight Foundation Arts Challenge award. The Knight Arts Challenge supports artistic innovation in audience engagement. GroundWorks Artistic Director David Shimotakahara was given permission to work in response to an important piece from the Museum’s permanent collection, the magnificent Dzesi II by internationally-renowned artist El Anatsui. As part of the project, GroundWorks will connect audiences to performances of its new premiere work through its acclaimed Action/Reaction program, helping people understand and experience art forms across disciplines in new ways.
GroundWorks is also delighted to bring back audience favorites LUNA and Hindsight this fall. Hindsight, Guest Artist Lynne Taylor-Corbett’s homage to Chrissie Hynde and first staged by GroundWorks in 2011, explores the sounds and rhythms of legendary English-American rock band The Pretenders. LUNA, choreographed by Shimotakahara in 2012, explores the nature of desire, it’s deeply held and often conflicting motivations.

PARKING GARAGE
Playhouse Square has kept event parking affordable for our guests. In fact, at just $20, the on-site Playhouse Square garage is priced lower than other parking facilities at every downtown entertainment and sports venue, where prices are sometimes more than double on event night for lots that can be several blocks away.
The garage offers a covered walkway into the theaters. The walkway is accessible from the 2nd floor of the garage and elevators are available on each parking level.
Purchase night or weekend parking in the Playhouse Square Parking Garage (located at 1450 Chester Avenue).
The Lumen Parking Garage is conveniently located across the street from the theaters, entering on E. 17th Street between Prospect and Euclid.
Parking passes must be purchased prior to the day of your performance.
Note: On the day of your performance, you will not be able to purchase Playhouse Square Parking Garage passes online or at the Box Office. Drive-up on-site parking may still be available at the published on-site rate. No overnight parking.
