Harlin’s choreographic memoir is dedicated to her mothers here on Earth and her ancestors beyond. Using storytelling, poetry, song and dance, and accompanied by a live band, the performance by four dancers and four musicians connects Harlin’s personal experience with trauma to pieces of African Diasporic culture, granting herself the heritage that threatens to be erased over time
Collaborators on June 6 include: Boyan Matsapola (bass), Kenneth Leftridge (Saxophone/ Flute), and dancers Brandon Dorsey, Sid Tucky, and Nicholas Sapp
Collaborators on June 8 include: Boyan Matsapola (bass), Page Kallop (Guitar), and dancers Jordan Ordonez, Sid Tucky, and Nicholas Sapp
