About the Event Spend your Saturday afternoon experiencing a spectacular double-feature of classical technique and modern choreography! We are gathering for the opening matinee of **ASFA Dance Presents: Fall Repertory** inside the school's state-of-the-art, 500-seat theater. This major autumn production showcases the school's upper-level dance students executing a diverse selection of classical ballet, modern, and high-energy contemporary choreography. * **Queer Relevance:** Modern and contemporary concert dance has long served as a vital sanctuary for LGBTQ+ artistic expression. This specific showcase intentionally breaks free from the rigid, heteronormative romantic pairings typical of traditional 19th-century story ballets. Instead, it highlights fluid partnering, artistic abstraction, and physical expression that completely transcends standard gender boundaries. This outing is an intentional, **intergenerational, all-ages, and sober-friendly space**. We encourage younger advocates, older artistic mentors, and community arts lovers of all age brackets to attend, sit together, and share perspectives. Halloween costumes are welcome but completely optional!
