MORE ABOUT US

Colorado Springs Dance Theatre is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that promotes dance in the Pikes Peak Region across generations. Our mission is to present a diverse range of world class dance forms, to educate young dancers, and to provide outreach to underserved children and their families.

For forty years, Colorado Springs Dance Theatre  has showcased quality dance companies from around the globe and maintains low priced tickets, making the performing dance arts more accessible to the community.  CSDT also nurtures young local dancers by providing performance opportunities, master classes, and scholarships.  Additionally, CSDT offers free tickets to community members in need, giving many families the opportunity to see their first professional dance performance.

OUR BOARD & VOLUNTEERS

Colorado Springs Dance Theatre is  volunteer-driven with only one part-time employee.  CSDT occasionally contracts professionals outside the organization for services as needs arise, but everyday work is offered through the generous support of our volunteers.  If you would like to volunteer with CSDT, please email [email protected].
