The gala was themed “Orbit,” reflecting Saint Louis Dance Theatre’s ability to use bodies in motion to draw together purpose and community. Guests enjoyed the world premiere of artistic director Kirven Douthit-Boyd’s newest work as well as the revival of fan favorite Cloud 9 by Norbert De La Cruz III.
