The name of this three-week fest tells you more about its humble origins than its current status: The Other is Chicago's modern dance festival, and a robust one at that. Premieres at the eighth annual include "Death of a (Prada) Salesman" from the Seldoms — schadenfreude at the luxury market's collapse, by way of Arthur Miller — and a duet exploring exhaustion by Darrell Jones and Paige Cunningham. Its place at the head of the season entices many companies to use their appearance as an opportunity to preview fall concerts — if you're looking to put dance shows on the calendar, you'll leave well-armed to make some decisions.
