WILKES-BARRE – Four-time EMMY® winner Derek Hough announced 2024 dates for his Derek Hough Symphony of Dance Tour. The 26-city cross country tour resumes spring and stops at F.M. Kirby Center on Tuesday, April 23.
From the mind of Derek Hough, Symphony of Dance is the first-national tour for the performing dynamo in four years following the sold-out successes of Derek Hough Live: The Tour, and Move Live on Tour.
The show on the way to NEPA features high-energy choreography, stunning stage production, astounding versatility and Derek’s magnetic stage presence. Fans will journey through a fusion of dance and music, as Derek explores styles ranging from ballroom and tap to salsa and hip-hop and everything in between.
Creative team and two-time EMMY® winners, Napoleon and Tabitha Dumo, also known as NappyTabs (Jennifer Lopez’s ‘All I Have’, Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour, GRAMMYs® creative direction), co-create, direct and supervise choreography for the tour.
