CDT is deep in rehearsals for Little White Lies.Little White Lies

We are building new dances that explore our thoughts and behaviors. In this time of fake news! the public discourse about how we treat ourselves and each other across difference in political, racial, economic, gender, and geographic terms (to name a few) asks, How do we reconcile truth? Lies? Is there one global truth? How do we live with our lies? We offer some physicalized contemplative, provocative, and evocative responses.

LIMITLESS IV

Is happening. And, it’s different. In the past, we’ve thrown a gala-style party with silent auction, food, dancing and drinks. Sounds super fun, right? It is. And, we may do that again… but, we are also planning several smaller events like dinners, site-specific showings, online challenges, and such. Our goal is to raise $15k by March 31st 2019. Yup. $15k.

3 easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy ways to support our work:

  • Donate here. Any amount has a meaningful impact on our ability to make the dance happen. $25 makes you a season supporter. $500+ makes you a season sponsor. Any amount makes you awesome.
  • Give monthly on patreon. Monthly donors give CDT the ability to plan and grow steadily. Benefits include sneak-peeks of rehearsal footage, first-notice of events, and more!
  • Buy a tank or tee! You asked for merch! We have merch! And, your purchase makes you a season supporter. Sweet!
    We give back.

LIMITLESS has supported other fantastic organizations by paying 10% of our donations forward. Past recipients: Joe’s Movement Emporium, Duke Ellington School of the Arts Museum Studies Program, Camp Little Notch. Who should we support this time? Send suggestions
