Circo del Pantano

JDT returns with the second year of its electrifying modern dance circus, guided by the bold vision of Artistic Director Rebecca R. Levy and featuring FSCJ danceWORKS students and faculty. Building on the momentum of its debut, this expanded production continues to blend the raw physicality of contemporary dance with the daring spectacle of aerial performance. Audiences can expect an even more refined and immersive experience, filled with striking visuals, dynamic movement and moments of surreal theatricality. Part dreamscape, part high-flying thrill, JDT’s modern circus continues to push the boundaries of genre and form—bold, immersive, and impossible to look away from.
