Atlas Events

This weekend at the Atlas Performing Arts Center there is something for everyone!


Friday and Saturday evenings at 8pm the Washington Performing Arts Society presents Expressions Dance Company: Virtually Richard 3
This audaciously original version of Shakespeare’s Richard III seamlessly blends theater and dance to tell the story of the Bard’s most complex and entertaining villain. The internationally acclaimed Australian company, led by director and choreographer Maggie Sietsma, produces “truly great, alarming, and rousing theatre” (Stuttgarter Zeitung, Germany).

Tickets are $37
