Spring Series 2026

Experience an unforgettable trio of works by BalletX co-founder, Matthew Neenan!

Matthew Neenan is celebrated for his groundbreaking choreography, musicality, and creativity. In his 28th world premiere for the company, he joins forces with award-winning composer and musician Scott Ordway and designer Christopher Ash to explore how simple gestures gain strength in unity – a joyful reminder of what we can achieve together.

Broke Apart, a landmark in BalletX’s history, premiered to sold-out crowds at the 2006 Fringe Festival. Exploring “boundaries both physical and emotional” (Philadelphia Inquirer), this magnetic ballet is set to a score of hits by female artists including Joanna Newsom, Martha Wainwright, and Cyndi Lauper.

Show Me was co-commissioned with the Vail Dance Festival in 2015. Hailed as “winning and witty” by The New York Times and set to the music of string quartet Brooklyn Rider, this work shows off the physical prowess and idiosyncratic personalities of BalletX’s dancers, as only Matthew Neenan can.
