Houston
Dance Theatre is a non-profit, tax exempt dance company geared for
serious young dancers in our Houston Community. H.D.T. presents a
full-length production of The Nutcracker annually.
The
company’s repertory also includes Firebird, Cinderella, Coppelia,
La Bayadere, Sleeping Beauty, Gaîté Parisienne and
many outstanding and original choreographic works.
H.D.T. continues
to bring in professional guest artists, choreographers, and teachers
to enhance the level of the dancers’ performing experience.
Auditions are open to dancers who have a commitment to perform. Our
talented dancers have the opportunity to audition for professional
ballet summer workshops. Their acceptance and attendance to these
programs demonstrates the high level of training they have received.
Many college scholarships and professional contracts have been offered
as a result of these contacts.
Houston Dance Theatre is an Honor company
of Regional Dance America. H.D.T was honored to receive the prestigious
RDA/Southwest Stream Award in 2003.
The Houston Dance Theatre Guild was established in 1996. Our dedicated
volunteers donate their time and expertise towards various fundraising
committees, which in turn provide financial and social support of Houston
Dance Theatre. We invite you to join us in our efforts, through volunteerism
and fund raising, especially for Festival
2006!
