What's more, these famous faces reach out into our schools and community centers conducting lectures, workshops and master classes that give our students the opportunity to see and learn from the very best. The Whiting provides tickets at little or no cost so students and others with low incomes can take advantage of these programs and performances.

Sometimes the face you see on stage may be someone you know! The Whiting is a popular place for graduations, recitals and other events. Many members of our community also volunteer their time as ushers.

You may catch a famous face of tomorrow at the Joffrey Midwest Workshop, hosted each summer at The Whiting, featuring some of the best pre-professional dancers from across the country.
