Special Project: “OUR BODIES! A PROTEST IN DANCE”
In the wake of the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe, we turned to the powerful medium of dance to capture the profound impact of this decision. With choreographers and dancers as the emissaries for all those whose bodies are now on the line, we challenged them to use their bodies to convey the weight and complexity of this historic moment.
In a bold and impassioned move, Creative Performances commissioned 10 visionary choreographers to use their artistry and movement to take a stand on one of the most pressing social issues of our time: Women’s Bodily Autonomy. The result is a collection of stunning dance works that eloquently and powerfully advocate for Reproductive Justice and access to Safe and Legal Abortion. These choreographers have woven together a tapestry of movement and meaning that will leave audiences moved and inspired, and reminds us of the transformative power of art to ignite change!
On April 22nd, at this event, these 10 dance vignettes were presented under the title “Our Bodies! A Protest in Dance!”!
At 14th Street Y Theater, 344 East 14th Street at First Ave, New York, NY 10003.
2 programs, 2 shows, 5 p.m. & 7:30 p.m. at
