OCTOBER 30 – NOVEMBER 1, 2025 KNIGHT THEATER
FALL WORKS: WHISPERS, ECHOES, VOICES
Jiří Kylián’s Petite Mort wields fencing foils and fabric in a euphoric exploration of tension and release, reflecting the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength while capturing the essence of life’s nature to the melody of Mozart. Crystal Pite’s Solo Echo sweeps through like a winter wind, its poetry etched in motion, resilience, and the echo of remembrance—a profound narrative of connection and emotional endurance. Mthuthuzeli November’s world premiere As I Am breathes life into ancestral voices, honoring the past, embracing the strength of the future, and the quiet freedom of truly arriving as oneself.
DECEMBER 5-21, 2025 BELK THEATER
NUTCRACKER
On a starry Christmas Eve, young Clara’s world transforms as she embarks on an enchanting adventure beyond imagination. Guided by the Nutcracker Prince, she journeys through swirling winter landscapes where snowflakes dance in harmony and into the dazzling Land of Sweets, where confections waltz and the Sugar Plum Fairy reigns in splendor.
With Tchaikovsky’s soaring score performed live by the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra and Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux’s breathtaking choreography, this beloved holiday tradition captures the wonder of childhood, and the beauty of a dream brought to life. A feast for the senses and the soul, Nutcracker will sweep you away in its spell, filling hearts with joy and memories to cherish.
FEBRUARY 20 – MARCH 21, 2026 CENTER FOR DANCE
WINTER WORKS: BOUNDLESS
Ohad Naharin’s Kamuyot pulses with immersive energy—playful yet primal—dissolving the distance between dancer and audience, weaving an unspoken dialogue of movement and connection. Nicole Vaughan-Diaz’s world premiere unfolds as a fearless exploration of the unseen, a testament to the raw emotion and depth that define her artistry. The North Carolina-based choreographer’s works move like a current—bold, unrelenting, and deeply human. This is an invitation, urging us to move together, listen beyond words, and surrender to the living art in motion.
MAY 7-10, 2026 KNIGHT THEATER
ONE THOUSAND PIECES
Like light refracted through stained glass, Alejandro Cerrudo’s One Thousand Pieces shimmers between clarity and mystery, reforming in a mesmerizing dance of unity. To the music of Philip Glass performed live by the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, and inspired by the visions of Marc Chagall’s America Windows, this dreamscape unfolds—fluid and ever-shifting, a reflection on art and love. Radiant water hues become a fleeting reflection of something greater, shaping expressions of transformation and the endless mosaic of human connection.
JUNE 11-20, 2026 CENTER FOR DANCE
FLIP
Curated by Charlotte Ballet’s professional dancers as they step beyond performance and into creation, transforming the stage into a canvas of their own design. In this bold and playful program, the lines between choreography and performer dissolve, giving rise to a deeply personal expression of artistry, shaped entirely by the dancers themselves.
