COCA New Works Festival

Two of COCA’s Pre-Professional Division companies come together for this showcase of new work.

Returning for its third season, COCA’s Choreographic Lab Project is a unique opportunity for young creatives to broaden their approach to dance-making. This season, COCA launched a search to find a classical choreographer to lead the project, and the mentors will include current professional ballet dancers and choreographers.

A conversation with choreographer Audrey Johnston will follow the performance.

The evening also includes a public reading of new plays by COCAwrites playwrights who have been developed and mentored by local, regional and national playwrights. Writers will share their original material, after which they will conduct a Q&A with the audience.

The New Works Festival is recommended for those eight and older.
