Keen Dance Theatre presents: The Top Hat
About / Details
Where every step tells a story.
Step into a world where history meets high art. Keen Dance Theatre invites you to an evening of unparalleled storytelling through movement with our latest production, The Top Hat.
The Vision
Inspired by the legendary spirit of the mid-century jazz scene and the cultural heartbeat of Old Walnut Street, The Top Hat is more than just a dance concert—it’s a cinematic journey. Through sophisticated contemporary choreography and a soulful score, we explore the elegance, the rhythm, and the triumph of an era that shaped the artistic soul of our city.
A Night of Two Acts
• ACT 1: Immerse yourself in the narrative-driven world of The Top Hat, featuring primary choreography by John Keen.
• ACT 2: The evening continues with a dynamic showcase of new contemporary and jazz works choreographed by both John Keen and Associate Artistic Director Lonetta Grimes. This second act pushes the boundaries of movement, blending technical precision with modern energy.
The Experience
Experience a night of sharp artistry and emotional depth at the intimate Bingham Theatre. This production showcases the technical foundation and professional consistency of the KDT dancers in a performance that honors the past while celebrating the evolution of contemporary dance.
