Coming Up – The Party Theater

The Party Theater’s 2025 Main Stage Series presents Dance Nation by Clare Barron

Somewhere in America, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plot to take over the world. And if their new routine is good enough, they’ll claw their way to the top at Nationals in Tampa Bay. Dance Nation is a play about ambition, growing up, and how to find our souls in the heat of it all.

Please be advised that this production contains stylized gore and use of blood, partial nudity, coarse language, descriptions of sex, masturbation, and sexual harassment.
