From ballet to modern, contemporary to physically integrated dance, the Sampler showcases exciting short pieces and excerpts and launches the season of dance in South Florida. The program features Arts Ballet Theatre of Florida, Dance NOW! Miami, Dimensions Dance Theatre of Miami, Karen Peterson & Dancers, New World Dance Ensemble, Pioneer Winter Collective and Syncopate Collective. The Daniel Lewis Dance Sampler is produced by the Miami Dance Futures in collaboration with Dance NOW! Miami and New World School of the Arts.

"South Florida's dance scene has grown and deepened over the years, and the Sampler really holds a mirror up to this creative ferment," said Hannah Baumgarten Co-Artistic Director of Dance NOW! Miami. "The idea is to excite audiences about Miami dance companies and inspire them to attend performances throughout the season," says Daniel Lewis , Sampler founder and Founding Dean of Dance, New World School of the Arts.

Tickets for the Dance Sampler are $25 general admission, $15 students and can be purchased in advance at www.dancenowmiami.org , or in-person on the evening of the performance. The New World Dance Theater is fully accessible and is located in downtown Miami at the New World School of the Arts, 25 NE 2nd Street, on the 8th floor, with nearby garage parking.
