Dance Nation

Somewhere in America, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plots to take over the world. Clare Barron’s razor-sharp play tells the story of 6 pre-teen girls and one boy (played by actors of all ages) in a competitive dance troupe from Liverpool, Ohio whose competitive season, under the expert guidance of Dance Teacher Pat, is leading to the finals. If they keep winning they’ll make it all the way to Nationals in Tampa. And they’ll get there on an airplane. But, the more you think you know about this play and these characters, the more they will surprise you.
