Somerville's Outdoor Dance Festival Lineup

Dancing in the moonlight...literally.

SOMERVILLE, MA – The Somerville Arts Council has booked six regional companies for this year's dance festival. But instead of showcasing them in a traditional venue, they have invited them to perform in outdoor locations.

With a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, the SAC was able to support the companies in the development of new projects with dance artist John Jasperse. The acts featured in this year's show are the product of this collaboration. Performances will be held Saturday, June 3 and Saturday, June 20 at Foss Park.

The lineup of productions is below.
