Video: New Work at the Wortham Center—First Steps

Posted on January 3, 2023

For the first time ever, the Wortham Center is proud to commission a brand new work. This piece by Stewart/Owen Dance will premiere in April of 2023 and be developed over the course of the season with feedback from a panel of community members.

Watch this video for a behind-the-scenes look at Vanessa Owen and Gavin Stewart’s creative process, and follow along as their work unfolds.
