Gather with us for a veritable smorgasbord of contemporary dance at the 13th annual Dance in the Desert Festival where some of the finest choreographers and dance companies from Las Vegas and the nation present their latest and most innovative works in three contrasting programs. An annual production of the CSN Dance Program, the Festival is quickly becoming a "summertime tradition, [that] strives to maintain integrity and highlight diversity." Carin Fox – Las Vegas City Life.  Writing for Call Back, Hal de Becker observed, "One thing is certain, dance lovers who miss the annual Festival, as directed by Kelly Roth, do themselves a disservice because it always offers innovative, exciting performances in varied dance styles and disciplines." Katie Anania adds, the Festival "promises to be highly accessible and more than a little fun." - Las Vegas City Life. Dave Surratt agrees, "It’s like CineVegas for the arms and legs.  Chicken soup for the soles." - Las Vegas City Life.

The success of such an event rests not only on artists willing to share their talent and creativity, but also on audiences fortunate enough to participate in a wonderful event. Therefore, we would like to extend to you an invitation to experience the Dance in the Desert Festival this year on July 27 - 7:00pm and July 28 - 2pm & 7:00pm at the Nicholas J. Horn Theatre, located on the CSN Cheyenne Campus in North Las Vegas.  We hope to see you there!
