About New Releases

Every year, Dance Place hosts a mixed-bill showcase designed to nurture and celebrate the incredible talent of DMV-based emerging choreographers. New Releases offers a supportive space for college students, emerging artists, and working professionals to share their latest creations, and grow within their choreographic practice.
