Rochester Dance Company's productions include:

The Nutcracker

This holiday confection has it all: lavish costumes and sets, timeless music and superb dancing by Rochester Dance Company members and professional guest artists. Each public performance is followed by a delightful Land of Sweets Party, where theatergoers enjoy holiday treats and mingle with Nutcracker characters, including Clara and the Sugar Plum Fairy. A holiday classic for all ages!

The Door to Imagination

Another original Rochester Dance Company production features award-winning storyteller and musician Odds Bodkin - the New York Times called him "a consummate storyteller." Odds uses many different character voices to tell his popular stories, which are intertwined with Rochester Dance Company's engaging choreography. Terrific family entertainment full of kindness, humor and gentle life lessons!
