Running time is 1 hour and 45 minutes with no intermission.

Reviews
  • “Critic’s Pick! A blazingly original play from the insanely talented Clare Barron. Directed and choreographed with gloriously rough magic by Lee Sunday Evans, marvel at how close what you see cuts to the bone.”

    — Ben Brantley, The New York Times
  • “I have seen the future, and it is Dance Nation.”

    — Peter Marks, The Washington Post
