Spectrum Dance Theater

Three works. Over seven years in the making. One final performance.

Tomorrow is your last opportunity to experience The Insidious Trilogy at On the Boards.

Bringing together Strange Fruit, Grief, and Targeted, the trilogy stands as the centerpiece of Spectrum Dance Theater’s season and a powerful exploration of storytelling through contemporary performance.

This work asks audiences to lean in and engage.
