Sideways Contemporary Dance Theater

Sideways is committed to creating more dance lovers by pairing dance with authentic storytelling. As contemporary dance theater, Sideways dancers transform into storytellers to motivate, inspire, and create conversation. By performing with authentic emotion & using relatable music, we create connections between audience members of various backgrounds. Whether it’s our festive holiday show or our performance of the season, Sideways takes you on a journey that will be hard to forget.

Over the past 15 years, Sideways has performed over 100 dances for the Metro-Atlanta Area and produces 2 concerts for our local community each year: our annual holiday show, Once Upon A Holiday, & a new concert that inspires audiences to action. Sideways partners with the Foster Schmidt Dance Company (FSDC) that showcases the abilities of dancers with developmental disorders. Sideways & FSDC have performed together in NYC & at Disney, in addition to local stages.
