UNAPOLOGETIC: The Inaugural Gala marks the beginning of Bateman Dance Theater’s inaugural season in Las Vegas.
Join us for an evening celebrating the artistic work of Founder and Artistic Director Kedric Bateman and the culmination of years of professional performance, choreography, and creative development that have led to the formation of Bateman Dance Theater.
The evening features contemporary dance performed by BDT’s professional company artists, alongside a gala experience with wine, an auction, local vendors, and opportunities to connect with the artists and learn more about the company’s vision.
Founded in Las Vegas by Kedric Bateman and Rachel Murray, Bateman Dance Theater is a nonprofit contemporary dance company committed to creating
bold, story-driven work bound in human experience. Through movement, BDT explores ideas and perspectives that invite audiences not only to watch, but to
feel, question, reflect, and connect.
BDT believes contemporary dance can be both visually compelling and deeply meaningful, leaving audiences with something that continues beyond the final moment onstage.
Proceeds from the evening directly support BDT’s inaugural season, professional artists, new work, performances, and continued growth in the Las Vegas arts community.
