Cowles Center announces inaugural season
The Cowles Center has been a long time coming, with efforts to renovate the old Shubert building spanning twelve years.
But finally, this fall, the new center for dance and the performing arts will open to the public, and it's just revealed the details of the inaugural season.
Some acts are no surprise - James Sewell Ballet, Minnesota Dance Theatre, and the Illusion Theater - as they've had a longstanding relationship with the Hennepin Center for the Arts and/or the lobbying efforts for the new Shubert.
But it's impressive to see so many different Minnesota dance companies lined up at the same venue. Take a look at who's going to be on stage this season:
