Performance

After a long hiatus, we will continue devising works that inspire audiences and challenge the status quo. CGDT is currently working on multiple projects including a year-long collaborative project with pianist, Joshua White. CGDT is also working with Colburn School faculty members, Tamsin Carlson and Jordan Nelson, on a project about the burden of beauty.

We are looking forward to sharing this work with you soon!

Previous Performance Projects

Established in 2009, CGDT continues to build upon their repertoire of over 11 full-evening length works, a 24-hour dance marathon and many other productions, workshops, and events.
