Shapiro & Smith Dance’s mission is to make contemporary choreography accessible to a wide range of audiences embracing inclusivity and equity in all its arts activities. Shapiro & Smith Dance’s exciting performances bring audiences to their feet and have been praised for outrageous athleticism, biting wit and psychological insight. BURNING AIR reminds Minnesotans of the devastating history of the Great Hinckley fire that destroyed communities from Pine City to Duluth.

“athletic, sharp-edged dancing, and a daring theatricality.” — The New York Times

“That was one of the most intense and inspiring dance programs I’ve ever seen!”  — Audience member, A Center For The Arts, Fergus Falls.
