New Paradigm Dance Theater

New Paradigm Dance Theater New Paradigm Dance Theater- Youth & Adult Dance Companies- valuing vulnerability & artistic pathways.

New Paradigm Dance Theater develops creative artists and thinkers of the future by creating an artistic environment where dancers and choreographers can be vulnerable, question and break assumptions, and focus on creating their own pathway to artistry. Our vision for New Paradigm is to have separate productions/programs for both youth and adult companies with opportunities to collaborate together.

We would love to have the ability to learn with and from each other to deepen our community connection and love for dance. Co-Artistic Directors Julia Wilkinson Manley & Chris Harris have extensive experience directing both adult productions and student performance companies. New Paradigm Dance Theater will combine professionalism with a safe, non-judgmental, dancer-based focus. Fostering artistic expression, vulnerability, and creativity, our goal is to create beautiful, intellectually stimulating and enjoyable art to bring our audiences along with us in our explorations.
