One pair of tickets to Paul Taylor Dance Company at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center, Friday, July 22, at 8pm.

One of the seminal artists of our time, Paul Taylor continues to shape the homegrown American art of modern dance that he has helped define since becoming a professional dancer and pioneering choreographer in 1954. The Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center celebrates its ninth consecutive season of performances by the Taylor Company at its Berkshires home. The repertoire includes Beloved Renegade, inspired by the life and career of Walt Whitman and his Leaves of Grass. 

The Mahaiwe Theater in downtown Great Barrington, MA opened in September 1905 and is one of the oldest surviving theaters in the country. The Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center was formed in December 2002. The theater has been newly restored, with great attention to historical detail. The Mahaiwe is now a unique year-round performing arts center presenting music, dance, theater, opera, and classic films in the southern Berkshires.
