TWDCC’s Deep Roots Dance Fest Nov 20-21
Deep Roots Dance Fest is a celebration of heritage, innovation, and artistic evolution. Each year, artists of the African Diaspora draw inspiration from traditional dance forms to create bold contemporary and modern works that reflect the depth, dynamism, and ever-evolving expression of their cultural roots. Through dance, we create opportunities for audiences to experience the richness of the African diaspora while recognizing the artists who carry these traditions forward and continue to shape their evolution. Featured choreographers are Stella Situma from Kenya, Olutola Afolayan from Nigeria, and Loubayi, Chris Babingui, and Makaya from Brazzaville Congo. Nigerian fashion designer IB Bayo will be presenting his incredible designs, modeled by local community members, and visual artist Rigel Hunter from the island of Antigua will present his art in the theater lobby.
