The artists and board of Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre will share an intimate first look at the creative process of their developing work, Exposed, set for Wednesday, October 21, 2026 at 6PM at Amanda Selwyn Dance Studio, 412 Broadway, 2nd Floor, New York, NY, 10013. Tickets are free and can be reserved https://amandaselwyndance.org/current-season/fall-2026-open-rehearsal/.

The open rehearsal will be followed by a wine and cheese reception.



Exposed, Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre’s 27th Annual Performance Season, is an evening-length work that explores vulnerability, vision, and courage. The scenic design creates an ever-changing landscape of pathways, levels, and partitions that conceals, distorts, confounds, beckons, and demands resilience. The choreography traces a journey from fragmentation and restraint to openness and release, unfolding through fluid partnering, interconnected ensemble work, sweeping phrases, buoyant lifts, and soaring moments of suspension that embody trust and transformation. The Full Theatrical Premiere of Exposed will take place from March 11-13, 2027 at New York Live Arts.



The Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre creates dynamic dance theatre that activates emotional expression. Through an interplay of athletic and articulate motion, they present theatrical and immediate works that engage audiences from start to finish and beckon a response of thought, feeling, and soul.
