It’s showtime. OZ Arts Nashville will soon welcome its 12th season in a big way with a slate of 10 performances across themes of resilience, change, and power.

Everything begins on Thursday, Sept. 12 with an add-on concert by Ukrainian folk-punk quartet DakhaBrakha, who returns to Music City after a local sold-out debut last year.

Before you explore ticket options ranging from season subscriptions ($225) and six-show packages ($140) to individual tickets ($20+), let’s sample a few shows.

  • Fable Cry: “Festival of Ghouls” | Oct. 26 | Annual Halloween event inspired by classic campfire ghost stories
  • The Wooster Group: “A Symphony of Rats” | Dec. 6-8 | Singing, stunts, and screen visuals in a sort of “scientist’s laboratory”
  • Soon-ho Park + Bereishit Dance Company: “Balance and Imbalance” | March 5-6 | Live music and movement drawing from martial arts, hip-hop, and street dance

The season wraps with Brave New Works Lab’s return (May 15-17) featuring Nashville artists. Psst: Proposals are accepted through Oct. 7. Apply now.
