Alabama Dance Works is proud to announce its original dance production, Continuum, set to take the stage at the historic Dothan Opera House from June 12th to 14th at 7 PM each night. This innovative performance draws inspiration from the verses of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, exploring the cyclical nature of life and the profound human experiences of love, loss, transformation, and resilience.

Through a fusion of contemporary, modern, and dance theatre styles, Alabama Dance Works’ professional company will bring to life the tension between opposites—creation and destruction, mourning and dancing, silence and expression. The production treats these verses as poetic reflections on the passage of time and the beauty found in each season of life.

Audiences will be captivated by the show’s unique structure, which begins with the final moments of the performance and flows into the exploration of grief and rebirth. Dancers will embody the emotional depth of each chosen verse, from the heavy, sustained movement of mourning to the joyful and expressive energy of dance. The performance concludes with a powerful meditation on Ecclesiastes 3:10-11, celebrating the beauty that comes with the passage of time and the eternal nature of the human spirit.

“This production is deeply personal to us,” says Christina Hicks, Artistic Director of Alabama Dance Works. “It reflects the mission of Alabama Dance Works to inspire, educate, and connect our community through innovative and thought-provoking performances. We hope to invite audiences to reflect on their own journeys and the timeless rhythm of existence.”

Join us for an unforgettable evening that will challenge your perspective on time, transformation, and the human condition.

Ticket Information
Tickets are available starting April 1st through the Dothan civic Center box office or online at http://www.aldanceworks.com Special discounts are available for students, seniors, and groups.

Born just outside of Austin, Texas, Ty grew up on a cattle ranch owned by his family for more than six generations. He clung on to music as a kid and never let go, obsessing over an expansive range of artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, Bill Withers, and Otis Redding to Chris Stapleton and George Strait. Devoting every waking minute to writing songs and playing music, he gave up baseball and football and opted for homeschooling in order to wholeheartedly pursue his dream. During 2023, he made waves with his debut single “Tie That Binds,” gaining traction organically and generating over 11 million Spotify streams. On its heels, “Drinkin’ Alone” exploded with over 26 million Spotify streams and counting. Between packing houses in his home state and sharing the stage with Willie Nelson, he has performed countless sold out shows across the states and wrapped up dates on Wade Bowen and Randy Rogers Band’s Hold My Beer Tour before embarking on his headline run.

“It was an absolute unique experience, I would definitely recommend MyCityRocks to friends and people from other cities. Thank you, I had a great time… You Rock!!!!” –Adam in Fresno, CA

“Ohhh man. It [Carrie Underwood] was sooo good. The seats were amazingggg!! I’ve never sat that close at a concert before!! I am totally telling my friends about your site and checking it in the future for sure.
Thanks sooo much!!!!!!!!!” –McKenzie in Troy, NY

“I ordered tickets to [see an NHL game] while we are on vacation in Fort Lauderdale Florida in March. Being in Canada, I was a little unsure of your service but thought I would give it a try. I cannot believe how incredible it was through the whole process. From step one I received an e-mail telling me about my order. Then again and again I received e-mails as my tickets were shipped and the dates and where they were along the way. What a magnificent set up you have and I will definitely put you in my favourites as the BEST place to purchase tickets in the future. Great service, great prices!! Thank you so very much I am thrilled with my tickets!” –Sandra in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

“Everything was great. Your service was great. The seats were great. Thanks for the parking pass and the tickets for drinks to the lounge. I am a satisfied customer and I will use you guys again when I need tickets to a show. I would highly recommend your company to people I know in other cities if your service was available. Thank you again.” –Joe in Canton, OH

“Got my tickets from you at the last minute. Seats were great, customer service awesome. I passed your number around at a party the following night. Told everybody how great you were. A friend is looking for tickets for Van Halen at the Izod Center. They have your number… Thanks again.” –Gina in Lanoka Harbor, NJ

“Thanks for the On-Line Ticket Exchange. I bought tickets to hear THE POLICE @ the Toyota Center on my daughter’s 17th birthday! I scored major “mom” points with these tickets. Thanks Again!” –Gail in Spring, TX

“I do not leave feedback often unless the service and/or product was exceptional. Just wanted you to know that the 3 tickets for a St. Louis Blues NHL game I purchased from your site were unbelievable. I knew they would be fairly decent seats when I ordered them. But, having never been to Scottrade center I was blown away to be sitting 9 rows up off center ice for around $60/ticket. We were so close, you could hear the words the players were yelling at one another. These were normally $127/ticket seats. The tickets arrived within 2 days of the order being placed, in mint condition, exactly as described. I will definitely use this service again and recommend it to others.” –Kathleen in Topeka, Kansas

Toddler Hour offers an engaging experience each month, on the fourth Thursday, from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m.

Guests from as young as 14 months are invited to participate in a children’s book reading and explorable activities in one of our museum galleries. This experience allows families to explore WMA’s galleries before they open to the public—reducing crowds, noise, and overstimulation.

After the reading, guests can explore the museum at their own pace. We will have Scavenger Hunts and discussion questions available for families to enjoy together.

Hey friends, Dothan’s First Friday Art Crawl is back, and we’d love to see you there!

Mark your calendars for Friday, June 6th, from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Come out to celebrate and support our local art scene. If you haven’t been, this is the perfect chance to check it out!

What’s an Art Crawl? On the first Friday of every month, local small businesses, galleries, and studios open their doors for artist pop-ups, new exhibit openings, hands-on art activities, and live art demos.

Whether you’re an art lover or just looking for a fun way to spend the evening, there’s something for everyone. Wander around, discover new artists, and experience the creativity that makes Dothan special.

And the best part? Each Art Crawl stop is totally unique. So, bring some friends, explore a few spots, and enjoy an evening of art and community. You’ll be supporting local artists and businesses along the way, which is a win in our book!

Country Music Hall of Famer Randy Travis has announced that the More Life Tour will hit the road again in 2025! Following a successful 2024 run, Randy, his original touring band, and special guest vocalist James Dupré are ready to bring this extraordinary musical experience to fans across the country. The tour promises an unforgettable journey through Travis’ chart-topping hits, enhanced by video highlights from his celebrated career in music, film and television. Presale begins September 18 at 10 A.M., with public tickets available on Friday, September 20 at 10 A.M. Fans can find ticket information at RandyTravis.com.

Although Travis won’t perform vocally due to the stroke he suffered in 2013, he will appear on stage with his wife, Mary, engaging with fans, interacting with the band, and celebrating the music. Dupré and the band will perform all of his iconic No. 1 hits, including “On the Other Hand,” “Forever and Ever, Amen,” and “Three Wooden Crosses.”

“The More Life Tour celebrates something so much more than a musical moment in time—it’s a gift to me to spend time with my fans, and my band, as James Dupre perfectly presents the songs that best define my career. We look forward to seeing you all somewhere along the way,” said Randy Travis.

“I’m thrilled and honored to hit the road again with my hero and friend, Randy Travis. I’m looking forward to meeting and singing along with all the Randy Travis fans in 2025,” said James Dupré.
