Celebrate with Us: Doris Duke Theatre Community Open House & Pop-Up Dance Celebration

Sunday, July 6 from 11am-3pm | Free and open to all, with a special invitation to our Berkshire community | Free roundtrip transportation from Pittsfield available

Join us for a joyful, movement-filled celebration at the Doris Duke Theatre Community Open House on July 6 and be part of something truly special!

As we open the doors to our new theater, we’re inviting you—our cherished community—to participate in a simple, dynamic pop-up dance celebration that will surround the building in dance and energy. This celebratory piece was choreographed by renowned choreographer Camille A. Brown, and taught by dancers from Camille A. Brown & Dancers. Whether you are an experienced dancer or just love to move, this is your moment to shine.

Here’s how you can get involved:

  1. Watch the tutorial video to learn the moves. (Don’t worry, we’ll learn it together again on July 6!)
  2. Sign up using the registration form to let us know you are joining us.
  3. Join us on July 6, ready to dance, connect, and celebrate!
