Chicago’s premiere Black dance company, Deeply Rooted Dance Theater, is kicking off its 30th anniversary season with performances November 7-8 at the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts on the University of Chicago campus. “What you’ll see on stage is love and joy and the ability to resist and push against the norms of what you think dance should be,” said Nicole Clarke-Springer, artistic director of Deeply Rooted Dance Theater. “It’s not just movement, but it’s stories brought to life.”
The 30th anniversary season kicks off with a return to the company’s roots, featuring Kevin Iega Jeff’s intimately reflective Wild is the Wind, Gary Abbott’s beautiful and tragic Parallel Lives, Nicole Clarke-Springer’s glorious choreography in Sacred Spaces and the premiere of an exciting new work by resident choreographer and dancer Joshua L. Ishmon.
