Dancers’ Choices, Choreographers’ Choices with Dawn Marie Bazemore

Lead dancers from Philadelphia’s premier modern dance company perform a piece that pays homage to the Yoruba deity Oshun, the protector, savior, and nurturer of humanity. Following this special performance, Dixon Li will moderate a conversation among the dancers and dance scholars Jasmine Johnson, Deborah Thomas and Dawn Marie Bazemore, that touches upon the choice to dance, choreography and choice, and performance and choice.
