On With the Dance! Bowen McCauley Celebrates Final Season at the Kennedy Center

The Washington Ballet Kicks Off 45th Season

BY J EFF MA L ET In its first performance in over a year, Arlington-based Bowen McCauley Dance Company was granted permission to perform in front of a live audience at the Kennedy Center’s Terrace Theater on May 26. It was an important step for the venue, as the performance was the Kennedy Center’s first event since its closure in 2020, though the invite-only gathering was restricted to just 25 percent of room capacity. The program was also simulcast live. Late last year, BMDC’s founding Artistic Director, Lucy Bowen McCauley announced that this — its 25th Anniversary Season– will be the company’s last. For more information about the Sept. 14 finale performance at the Kennedy Center, or the Dance for PD program, visit www.BMDC.org. See full story and more photos of this event at Georgetowner.com.
