Continuing its mission for over five decades to preserve the Black traditions in dance, PHILADANCO! returns with a program that reflects the company’s creative, inventive, and deeply rooted artistry. PHILADANCO! stands as an anchor of American modern dance excellence, known for producing dancers with unmatched technique and for upholding the lineage of Black American concert dance at the highest standard. This season gathers works that honor the company’s legacy while propelling it forward in the world of dance with four distinctive voices that reveal PHILADANCO!’s unmistakable power and evolution.
The dynamic season includes Thang Dao’s striking Roked; Tommie-Waheed Evans’ emotionally charged Promise Me You Won’t Call; and a new creation by Rennie Harris, set to the unmistakable sound of Philadelphia celebrating the legacy of Philadelphia International Records. The engagement will also mark the 25th anniversary of Christopher Huggins’ epic tour de force, Enemy Behind the Gates, a masterwork that has endured across generations and continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
