What is Behind the Barre?
Capital Dance Project's annual production Behind the Barre is a true celebration of our vibrant Sacramento community and arts scene. Since our inaugural performance in 2015, Behind the Barre has presented 50 world premiere dance works, and provided a platform for over 60 local artists, musicians, and professional dancers.
The highly acclaimed program pairs CDP's resident choreographers with our city's most exciting visual artists and musicians for a thrilling multi-media performance. A testament to the power of collaboration, Behind the Barre never fails to leave our artists and audience inspired by what unfolds when different art forms and mediums are combined, creating something truly unique. The performance features stunning introductory films by longtime CDP collaborator Natalie Manning, giving the audience a glimpse into the collaborative and creative process before seeing each piece. Behind the Barre also celebrates our local makers, artists, and businesses with a Maker's Mart before the show, and local brews provided by CDP community partner New Helvetia Brewing Company.
