Special Performance by JOYEMOVEMENT

Join Greensboro dance company JOYEMOVEMENT in a performance of “Delicate Territory,” part of the programming for Of Salt and Spirit. Refreshments will follow. Presented in collaboration with the UNCG African American and African Diaspora Studies Program.

Delicate Territory examines how ancestral memory can be discovered through movement and lead us through tumultuous times. How can we hold onto or reimagine the passed-down wisdom required to navigate the future? How can we lean on our legacy of agility and innovation and apply it to our present circumstances?

This piece is a dance suite in three parts featuring a solo, a trio, and a quartet. Choreographed by Alexandra Joye Warren, performed by Milanda McGinnis, Adrienne Powell, Caroline Robertson, Tatiyana Rudolph, Victoria Williams, and Annie Young. Costumes designed by Pamela Bond. Original music composition by Suzanne Polak.

This project has received funding support from the NC Arts Council, the Arts Council of Greater Greensboro, the High Point Arts Council, and Creative Greensboro.
