If you haven’t yet seen this Chicago institution, the upcoming Winter Series at the Harris Theater is sure to be an appealing introduction to the most popular modern dance company in the city. The program includes two premieres: “One On One” by Hubbard Street’s artistic director Jim Vincent and “Walking Mad, ” a highly publicized new work by Johann Inger set to Ravel’s “Bolero”—familiar, yet bold choice of material and one certainly well suited to the company’s crowd-pleasing, dramatic athleticism. Also on the program is the elegant, balletic “Strokes Through the Tail” by Marguerite Donlon and “The Set” by Lucas Crandall. (Sharon Hoyer)

At the Harris Theater for Music and Dance, 205 E. Randolph, (312)334-7777. Wednesday, Dec 3-Sunday, Dec 7. $25-$86.
