Join LADP company member Hope Spears for an open level class that introduces dancers to movement from City of Dance. The class offers an opportunity to explore phrases from the project and connect with the physicality of the work in a studio setting.

In June 2026, L.A. Dance Project and Paris Dance Project present the U.S. premiere of Benjamin Millepied’s public dance initiative, La Ville Dansée / City of Dance.

Premiering in 2025, La Ville Dansée drew more than 10,000 spectators across Paris and four neighboring cities through seven free performances in iconic public spaces.

In 2026, City of Dance activates sites across Los Angeles, with select performances followed by conversations on urbanism, ecology, technology, and social change, curated by Françoise Vergès.

Set to Philip Glass’s score for Koyaanisqatsi (1982), five choreographers — Dimitri Chamblas, Madeline Hollander, Benjamin Millepied, Jamar Roberts, and Pam Tanowitz — each respond to a section of the music, creating a unified work reflecting on technology, modern life, and a world out of balance.
