spring 2021 productions

Dixon Place is moving forward! Come hell or high water, four inspiring live productions are premiering this spring! YES, live theater returns to DP as resourceful, supple, passionate artists persevere!

Since 1994, DP’s Commissioning Program has engaged early and mid-career generative artists to develop and present new cutting-edge works of performance. The program provides financial, physical, and responsive resources that empower artists to create courageous new work.

Unless circumstances changes again, limited in-person seating is available for 3 the following live stream fully produced shows. Abandon your virtual skepticism (or your couch) and join the revelry! Tickets are on sale, with an option to experience all 4 shows at one great price!
