The Crown
At 60 years, RDT is like a crown that sits atop the head of Utah’s arts community, a luminous pinnacle of artistry, athleticism, and grace.
Diamonds

60 Years In Motion
The RDT Archival Exhibition
For sixty years, Repertory Dance Theatre has been Utah's modern dance company. We started in 1966 at the University of Utah, and since then we've become something more than a dance company. We're a cultural institution that preserves the masterworks of American modern dance while commissioning new work that pushes boundaries. We're the professional home where dancers, choreographers, and arts administrators launch their careers. And we're the organization that brings dance to 45,000 Utah students every year through our education programs. We've collected six decades of history along the way, from rare performance footage to original costumes, from photographs of dancers who launched their careers on our stages to program notes documenting hundreds of premieres. Most of this archive has never been seen by the public.
