CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF DANCE

City in Motion was founded by artistic directors Randy Barron, Kathleen Kingsley, Arielle Thomas Newman, Rick Hillis, and Jean Dickinson. These five choreographers dreamed of bringing together modern dancers from all over Kansas City, to provide a laboratory for professional modern dance in the Midwest region.

We have come a long way since the company's first public performance was May 17, 1985, at Arts Fest ’85 in Crown Center Square.
