TRIBUTE TESTIMONIALS

Tribute has always been my favorite UMB production. The variety of choreography and depth of artistry make it unforgettable. It’s the dancers’ ability to truly shine that keeps me coming back every year.

I love that UMB brings these pieces from renowned choreographers right here to our own backyard. Every performance feels like a gift to the community.

As a dancer, Tribute has always been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career. The choreography challenges you, the artistry pushes you, and the connection with the audience is unforgettable. It’s a rare chance to perform world-class works in honor of the people who make it all possible.
