Now a singular presence in the ballet world, the Dance Theatre of Harlem Company (DTH) tours nationally and internationally, presenting a powerful vision for ballet in the 21st century. Through performances, community engagement and arts education, the Company carries forward DTH’s message of empowerment through the arts for all.
The program includes Balamouk choreographed by Annabelle Lopez Ochoa with music by Les Yeux Noirs and Passage, choreographed by Claudia Schreier with a commissioned score by Jessie Montgomery—a moving reflection on the fortitude of the human spirit, created in recognition of the 400th anniversary of the arrival of enslaved Africans to Virginia in 1619.
“Both respectful of the form and bravely pushing its edges, Balamouk expands (Arthur) Mitchell’s vision of ballet as an art form without boundaries or barriers.” —Times Union
