World Premieres:

New Finale with live music by Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus
Featuring amazing renditions of the hit songs:
- "Some Nights" by Fun
- "Somebody to Love" by Queen
- "Africa" by Toto

"Troika" 
A male trio about the power of each individual coming together to create a unified group.

"Pulp" 
A full company comedy inspired by the silent film era, with a stylish nod to the films of Quentin Tarantino

Buffalo Premiere:

"Rascal"
Performed by veteran company member Rachael Humphrey and premiered in Germany on February 12, 2016. A feisty solo a dancer left alone to do whatever they want, like a child at play who thinks no one is watching.  

Lehrer Dance Favorites:

"Chukchi" (2015)
The dynamic, pulse-pounding work inspired by tours to the Far East of Russia, featuring original music by "Ergyron", the State Chukchi-Eskimo Music & Dance Ensemble located in Anadyr, Russia. Premiered at last year's home season, the work has since been performed around the world to rave reviews.

"Femeie de Lume" (2014)
Romanian for "Woman of the World', this awe-inspiring work featuring Colleen Walsh and the four men of Lehrer Dance, showcases the beauty, strength, and vulnerability of the woman. She both depends on the men and controls them in order to get through this emotionally and physically complex work.           

"A Ritual Dynamic" (2007)

The work that started it all, the very first Lehrer Dance piece! Not performed in its entirety in Buffalo since 2012, "A Ritual Dynamic" shows off the organic athleticsm and edge of your seat excitement for which the company has become world famous.
