Rooted and Rising: Full Circle Dance Company’s 25th Anniversary Season

Full Circle Dance Company, a pillar of Baltimore’s arts scene, will celebrate 25 years of creative work in 2025 with performances that both honor its roots and celebrate new voices.

Headlining the season is Rooted and Rising, to be presented on November 9, 2025, at the Baltimore Museum of Art. This show includes She Did That!, a new work inspired by the stories of female ancestors. Based on true stories, drawing on raw material generated through free community workshops, and created collaboratively by multiple choreographers, She Did That! unearths and honors women who cleared paths for future generations.

Also premiering November 9 is To Come Full Circle by longtime artistic collaborator Travis D. Gatling, commissioned to mark the company’s 25th anniversary. Gatling explores the theme of ancestry from a different angle, celebrating the ways diverse, committed artists can together build an enduring creative family.

In addition to these two premieres, Rooted and Rising will include some of the very best works created by and for Full Circle since its founding. These include one of the very earliest works by Artistic Director Donna L. Jacobs; a historically grounded work by award-winning choreographer Hope B. Byers; and an entrancing, virtuosic work by Full Circle veteran Jennifer Seye.
