ADF's Children's Saturday Matinee series presents performances by professional dance companies specially curated to ignite and inspire the imaginations of children. Each one-hour performance is followed by a FREE Kids' Party, complete with live music and activities.
Rennie Harris Puremovement American Street Dance Theater will kick off the series with a performance of the acclaimed work Nuttin’ But A Word by Rennie Harris, which pushes the boundaries of street dance vocabulary and forces its audience to view street dance through a different lens. Challenging the viewer’s perspective of street dance or Hip-hop dance and its culture, Nuttin’ But A Word takes you on a dramatic and abstract journey while twisting, matching, juxtaposing, and pulling vocabulary and music in ways unimaginable. Harris chooses to end this work in a traditional Hip-hop celebration, which Africanists may refer to as the Bantaba.
Tickets on sale on April 25, 2023.
