Terpsichore Collective presents professional contemporary dance works for stage, site-specific, multimedia, and film projects. It is a re-imagination of Artistic Director Aimee McDonald’s previous projects, Terpsichore’s Kitchen, and Terpsichore’s Kitchen Dance Theatre, which produced the annual choreographers’ showcase Dancing in Summer from 1998 to 2009, as well as regular choreographic showings and touring works.
In June of 2024, Terpsichore launched the annual Dancing in Summer, The Festival, which features professional choreographers showcases, master classes, an open showing where anyone is welcome to show work and exchange feedback with other dance makers, and a dance film screening. In 2026, we’re expanding to offer nontraditional/ in-the-round performances.
In 2025, we launched our ChoreoLab project, which connects choreographers and dancers with rehearsal space and support to create new works. These works are then presented in a produced concert. Choreographers get videos and photos of their works, which helps them in pursuing future opportunities.
