PRESENTING SERIES
Dance Theatre of Harlem
Saturday, February 17, 2024
Formed at the height of the civil rights movement, the Dance Theatre of Harlem has created a space for dancers of every color and background to express themselves freely. The legendary company continues to be a beacon of inclusion, innovation, and moving art, performing a forward-thinking repertoire of treasured classics to modern works. A mixed program includes Sounds of Hazel, Tiffany Rea-Fisher's new ballet inspired by the life of virtuoso classical and jazz pianist, singer, and civil rights activist Hazel Scott.
With a storied history, the first Black classical ballet company, co-founded by dance icon and international superstar Arthur Mitchell, has toured the world, engaged communities, and introduced young minds and bodies to the power of dance. With all its renown, this boundary-breaking, dynamic organization has maintained Mitchell's core belief that ballet belongs to everyone.
