CONNECTIONS 
We live in a world filled with AI, fake news, and virtual “reality.” Yet humans are born wired for connection–it’s in our DNA, as strong a need as food, water, and shelter. Inlet’s concert is real. Real Bodies, real space, and real connections. Connections improve physical and mental health, enhance well-being and happiness, and foster personal and professional growth. Connections lower our stress, anxiety, and depression, raise our self-esteem, improve our immune function, and help us regulate our emotions. Connections also give us support, guidance, and fresh perspectives. This curated selection of works and premieres explores connections as an antidote to the toxic, divisive world we are living in.

Every year, Cleveland Public Theatre welcomes Northeast Ohio’s most adventurous contemporary dance companies to the CPT stage for remarkable and premiere dance performances.

Thursday performances are Covid-conscious where masks are required. Click here for COVID-19 Safety Protocols.

Every Friday is Free Bev Friday where select post-show beverages are on CPT.

Content Warning: DanceWorks is a presented series, which means we don’t always know the content entirely. CPT supports art in development, as well as social justice oriented-work, and sensitive material may be explored. Because of the nature of art in development, we can’t provide additional content warnings for DanceWorks performances.
