Sensual, sophisticated, and breathtakingly visual, this new production by acclaimed choreographer Kyle Abraham is propelled by the seductive R&B and soul music of enigmatic GRAMMY-winner D’Angelo. Starting as an electrically-charged house party on stage, the evening evolves into a joyous, multifaceted celebration of love with powerful and virtuosic dancing by the 10 members of Abraham’s celebrated company. Abraham dedicates this feel-good work — its visceral hope, solace, and joy — to family, culture, and community strengthened over generations and lifetimes.
Returning to OZ Arts for the first time since his stunning 2015 Nashville debut, Abraham has become one of today’s most acclaimed and sought-after choreographers, known for theatrical and poetic work immersed in Hip-hop culture. He has been honored as a MacArthur “Genius” Fellow, a recipient of the Princess Grace Statue Award, and a Jacob’s Pillow Dance Award winner, and was the first Black choreographer to make work for the New York City Ballet in over a decade.
