Pangea Dance Collective Presents PANGEA: UNLEASHED
Company:
Pangea Dance Collective
Pangea Dance Collective will present its Fall 2026 season, PANGEA: UNLEASHED, October 10–11 at Peridance KnJ Theater in New York City. Featuring eight world-premiere works by company artists, the program will also mark the highly anticipated return of Carmilla, Pangea's signature full-length contemporary ballet.
Following its previous presentation, Carmilla returns to the stage as a centerpiece of Pangea's fall season. The work is Pangea Dance Collective's full-length contemporary ballet adaptation of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's classic gothic romance novella of the same name. It tells the story of forbidden love between Laura, a lonely noblewoman, and Carmilla, the vampiress who enters her life disguised as a companion.
An intimate exploration of queerness, femininity, and freedom, Pangea’s Carmilla reimagines the romance between Laura and Carmilla as one of mutual agency and empowerment. It employs the structure of a Romantic-era ballet to tell a contemporary story that will delight both new and longtime ballet enthusiasts.
Alongside Carmilla, PANGEA: UNLEASHED will feature eight world-premiere works created by Pangea company artists, showcasing the individual artistic voices and creative range of the dancers who make up the company.
For the first time, Pangea will present its fall season across two performances, expanding the opportunity for audiences to experience the company and its work. Early Bird tickets are available through September 1, 2026.
