Loaded with world and company premieres alongside the most acclaimed theatrical event of 2014, Season 38 at Hubbard Street will take your breath away.

We’re excited to offer four incredible, unique programs for 2015–16, exclusively at the Harris Theater for Music and Dance:

Fall Series • A triple bill dedicated to vanguard choreographer William Forsythe includes the Hubbard Street premiere of his thrilling ensemble work One Flat Thing, reproduced; and the first performances by a U.S. dance company of N.N.N.N., for a quartet of men.

Winter Series • The first U.S. production of Solo Echo by Crystal Pite headlines an evening of work by female choreographers. See a world premiere by Chinese-American artist Yin Yue for Hubbard Street 2, another by Penny Saunders, and Waxing Moon by Robyn Mineko Williams.

Spring Series • Creator of lighthearted Hubbard Street classics like Gimme and The Set, Lucas Crandall returns to the choreographer’s chair to unveil a world premiere. Gustavo Ramírez Sansano’s innovative I am Mister B and Alejandro Cerrudo’s enigmatic, theatrical work The Impossible complete this program.

Summer Series • “It’s hard to imagine a more seamless marriage than the one between The Second City and Hubbard Street Dance Chicago in The Art of Falling,” wrote Kris Vire of Time Out Chicago. Your Season 38 subscription concludes with this blockbuster, full-evening collaboration that had audiences clamoring for its return.

Hubbard Street’s Youth Summer Camps offer creative, technique-focused and performance opportunities all summer long.

Little Movers Camp, for ages 4–6, gives our littlest dancers a full week of fun to build gross motor skills, musicality and kinesthetic confidence.

Artistic Connections Camp and Dance Explorers Camp, for ages 6–11, give students a chance to create, explore and perform each day.

Technique Workshop Series and Hip-Hop Camp, for ages 7–16, allow dancers to focus on their favorite techniques, through intensive study of ballet, jazz, modern and hip-hop — available “à la carte” or in any combination.

Hubbard Street’s Level I Preparatory Summer Intensive is ideal for serious dancers who are working towards advanced and pre-professional course work.
