Leverage Dance Theater's most popular Site Specific Halloween production returns to Cherokee Street, with new characters and new dances. If you loved this show, the last time, you won't want to miss this latest variation. Grab and friend and join us once again for an evening of spooky surprises.

From playful to downright creepy, our new 2026 Halloween production will transports audiences to another world as they travel through two floors, multiple rooms, long hallways, and the basement of 2715 Cherokee Street. Leverage artists embrace the challenge of transforming into new characters and creatures with each Halloween show. 

“These productions allow us to create performances to which almost no rules apply,” Artistic Director, Diana Barrios said.

Directed by Leverage Dance Theater Director, Diana Barrios, the show includes choreography by all company members and former Associate Director, Keli Hermes.

Leverage’s mission includes making dance more accessible. No-cost and low-cost tickets are offered to disadvantaged communities. Patrons may support this initiative by purchasing a ticket designated to be gifted to someone in need.
