It's Spooky Season at the Dayton Performing Arts Alliance!
Our favorite Fall traditions return for another chilling and thrilling year with Dayton Performing Arts Alliance. On October 23, hear the stampede of all the Earth's creatures in Dayton Philharmonic's annual PhilharMonster concert. Then, Dayton Ballet opens their season with new choreography by Karen Russo Burke to tell the eerie story of the Headless Horseman in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

Autumn wouldn’t be complete without a family trip downtown for
PhilharMonster. Gasps, giggles, and costumes abound during this afternoon when everyone prepares for the hauntingly hilarious Halloween season. Before the concert, the Dayton Philharmonic will provide activities and treats and conduct a costume parade in the Wintergarden. Come dressed with Halloween spirit and enjoy the symphonic sounds of the animal kingdom.
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

October is the perfect setting for Dayton Ballet’s brand-new production of
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The haunting story of the Headless Horseman comes to life with all the same characters of this familiar tale. Ichabod Crane, Brom Bones, and the full ensemble of Dayton Ballet take the stage to bring to life Artistic Director Karen Russo Burke’s fresh approach to the timeless classic.
