DIRECTOR’S NOTE

Dear Patron, Welcome to Odyssey’s 32nd season!

We had an incredible 31st Season, including winning Best of State Best Dance Company for the 19th year, and we are excited to embark on a new season of innovative and fun performances!

We are delighted to have performances of Thriller in six Utah locations. In addition to Logan, we are performing at The Kenley

DIRECTOR’S NOTE Amphitheater in Layton, the Egyptian Theater in Ogden, as well as Park City, Salt Lake City and Tuacahn Amphitheatre.

Our new holiday production Christmas Spectacular, SPECTACULAR has been a tremendous success and proved we have another hit on our hands! We are pleased to bring it back for the third year in a row with David Osmond, starring once again in the shows. We are pleased to announce the addition of the Full Circle Boys as special guests! The Christmas Spectacular will be at The Grand Theatre and, new this year, Logan and Ogden, where we are offering a discount if you purchase both Thriller and Christmas Spectacular, SPECTACULAR. Shut Up & Dance will see the return of two audience favorites: Let it Be and MJ, along with UNLEASHED! - Odyssey Dancers talents on full display. A full evening of repertory works with several world premieres. The show will close with a trip down memory lane with SOULTOWN REVIVAL - a tribute to the early sounds of Motown. UNLEASHED will be a tour de force showcasing Odyssey’s eclectic styles and dynamic dancers!

DIRECTOR’S NOTE Don’t miss any of them. Season tickets are on sale through October 24th (go to www.odysseydance.com) See our What’s Coming page and ads for information on our dance convention in Ogden, The Feedback Forum, February 4th to 6th 2027 and a sneak peak of our new Odyssey Dance Conservatory coming to Daybreak.

But, for now, we hope you will enjoy Thriller. We have all of the favorites from the past plus a few new surprises.
