IT’S HAPPENINGGGGG!!!!!!

Whirlwind Dance Company’s first full-length work of Season V is officially here.

NEARSITED
October 25, 2026
The Lincoln Theatre
2pm + 7pm

NEARSITED explores the tension between what is right in front of us and what exists just beyond our view. Inspired heavily by the far side of the Moon and its connection to earth and humans, the work considers how perception shapes reality, how easily we mistake the unseen for the unknown, and what might become possible when we choose to look beyond what feels immediately visible.

What if seeing clearly means looking further away?

Tickets launch NEXT WEEK. 👀🌙

Save the date. Tell your people. We’re so ready for this one Columbus!!! taken in Whirlwind Dance Company by @whirlwinddance

SUBMISSIONS ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN!!!!

*auditioning is optional and not required to participate in the workshop*

For the first time ever, WhirlWind is introducing an application-based Winter Workshop + Audition Experience, and we are SO excited to welcome a new room of artists into our world.

December 12–13, join us in Columbus, Ohio for two days of movement, exploration, connection, and TRAINING!

Classes will run from 10 AM–3 PM Saturday + Sunday

This year, we’re introducing an application process to preserve the quality and integrity of the experience, creating an intentional space for pre-professional and professional dancers to challenge themselves, take risks, and GROW.

AND!!! This workshop will also serve as an optional audition opportunity for consideration for WhirlWind’s Season VI Professional Company and 2027–2028 MOVE Training Program.

Auditioning is completely OPTIONAL. You do not have to audition to participate in the workshop! This is simply an opportunity to get in the room, experience our process, and potentially be considered for what’s next as we begin future selection and contract conversations.
