Join us for the next SOLO concert at The O’Shaughnessy
Friday and Saturday, September 20-21 at 7:30pm
Each year three exceptional Minnesota dance artists receive the coveted honor of a McKnight Dancer Fellowship. To celebrate them, we commission a solo dance for each of them from a choreographer of their choice. The 2022 & 2023 Dancer Fellows have selected an outstanding group of local, national and international dance artists to bring their choreographic imaginations to new and reimagined works expressly tailored for these exceptional performers. The result is an evening of Minnesota premieres, ranging from Baladi to Breaking to Ballet and more. Join us and celebrate the 20th anniversary of this unique Minnesota dance concert.
The approximate run time of the event is 90 minutes with one fifteen-minute intermission.
Please note: This performance features partial nudity. Viewer discretion is advised.
Tickets are available through The O’Shaughnessy ticket office by calling 651-690-6700, visiting oshag.stkate.edu, or in person.
