Welcome to Tigertail's Supported by many friends and sponsors Tigertail has compiled over 30 years of creative achievement. We have commissioned, presented and produced more than 500 astounding artists in the performing, literary and visual arts from a performance with life-sized puppets created for a swimming pool, to day-long dance pieces for the beach, to commissioned works for the Metrorail, to events in museums, galleries and theaters. Our 31st season speaks to the region's multicultural identity in playful, inspiring and challenging ways. Tigertail's 2010/2011 agenda of bold adventure careens from Dutch jazz to spoken word for teens, Louisiana blues, venerated virtuoso guitar and acclaimed dance. View the complete Tigertail season schedule >> And while bringing the world to South Florida, Tigertail continues to foster area artists, build youth projects, produce community residencies and commission new work. In addition to presenting these outstanding public events, Tigertail also does important work behind the scenes, including community residencies, commissioning of new works, and administering Miami-Dade's Artist Access grants. |
