Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre announces its 2021-22 performance season schedule will include new works and past favorites.

Diamond Glassworks will be a partner as the presenting sponsor.

The season begins with “Under The Big Top” at 7 p.m. Aug. 26-28 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. GHDT is back at The Tarkington for “There’s No Place Like Home” Oct. 28-30, featuring a unique adaptation of “The Wizard of Oz.”

GHDT’s presentation of “The Nutcracker” is set for Pike Performing Arts Center Dec. 3-4.

The 2022 portion of the schedule opens with “The Black Dahlia” at The Academy of Dance Theatre, which will convert the rehearsal space into a black-box theater. “The Black Dahlia” debuted in 2017. It is based on the unsolved Hollywood murder of Elizabeth Short in 1947.

“Exodus” will be presented at The Tarkington April 7-9. Inspired by the Book of Exodus but adapted to the modern world, “Exodus” is a cautionary tale of hatred and ignorance. The 10 modern plagues include: desecration of the Earth, gun violence, racism, war, poverty, crime, social media, government, selfishness and death of the firstborn.

GHDT will close its 2021-22 season with the world premiere of “Antony and Cleopatra” at The Tarkington June 9-11. This new full-length, grand work pairs the talents of GHDT Artistic Director Gregory Hancock and award-winning composer Cory Gable, known for his evocative musical score for GHDT’s “The Casket Girls.” GHDT’S “Antony and Cleopatra” is a contemporary retelling of the classic tale and will be set in anytime and anyplace.
