Deeply Rooted Dance Theater (DRDT) performs Co-Founder Kevin Iega Jeff ’s Flack (1984), a portrait of strife, despair, and ultimately triumph, set to the music of legendary performer Roberta Flack; DRDT Co-Founder and Associate Artistic Director Gary Abbott’s Parallel Lives (2017), a contemporary narrative inspired by poor, working women who have shared life-changing events, both beautiful and tragic, with original music by Evangelos Spanos based on Vivaldi’s "La Folia"; and Jeff's lush and acclaimed Wild is the Wind (2009) with music by Nina Simone.
JCGO performs three works by Founder/Director Gaines: the world premiere of Tribal Truth, which celebrates the festivities, tradition, and poetry of keeping traditional African dance alive, fused with hip-hop, ballet, and modern dance styles to the music of Fela Kuti; Shhh… Ahhh… (2004), about daydreaming in the midst of cool, sexy, sultry, summer breeze, with music by India Arie; and Hanging Tree (2019), a solo dedicated to the MAAFA, a Swahili word referring to “the great suffering” during the transatlantic slave trade, that demonstrates breaking psychological chains and living in a country where history is distorted and changed.
