CITIZEN - WORLD PREMIERE

What does it mean to belong? What does it mean to NOT want to belong?

This greatly expressive, physically virtuosic company takes audiences on an exploration of the core human impulse to belong, and the ways that a society treats race, culture, and income to influence one’s identity in a group. CITIZEN is a contemporary dance that confronts the complex challenges, struggles, judgments, and webbing between anonymity and community, between ideas of individual self and of being a citizen of your homeland or your adopted homeland. This exhilarating and provocative work features layered interplay between dancers, film, and shadow—and a masterful display of motion.
