Staged Reading: DANCE NATION

square product theatre will present the Regional Premiere of DANCE NATION in 2020, but we simply can't wait to share it with a few of our most dedicated fans. So: we're holding a staged reading, directed by Gleason Bauer and featuring performances by Mark Collins, Aziza Gharib, Emily K. Harrison, Haley Johnson, Rakeem Lawrence, Katie Ross, Juliet Marie Salazar, Ayla Sullivan, and Edith Weiss.

AND YOU'RE INVITED.

Somewhere in America, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plots to take over the world. And if their new routine is good enough, they'll claw their way to the top at the Boogie Down Grand Prix in Tampa Bay. But in Clare Barron's raucous pageant of ambition and ferocity, these young dancers have more than choreography on their minds, because every plié and jeté is a step toward finding themselves, and a fight to unleash their power.

DANCE NATION is a play about ambition, growing up, and how to find our souls in the heat of it all.
