About this Event

Documentary Screening: What Came with Spring

𝘞𝘏𝘈𝘛 𝘊𝘈𝘔𝘌 𝘞𝘐𝘛𝘏 𝘚𝘗𝘙𝘐𝘕𝘎 is a short documentary which follows Christian Warner’s multidisciplinary choreographic premiere in Kansas City, performed by Owen/Cox Dance Group with musicians The Black Creatures. The artists engage with the community in conversation about the Black experience and Black liberation through the choreographic medium and music.

The premiere challenges the audience to take the conversation beyond the theatre, and out into the world. Through Christian Warner’s choreographic exploration, he leans on his research of the history of vaudeville and minstrelsy in Kansas City, weaving his narrative within the alluring score by The Black Creatures. Each artist dissects their character roles within the production, pulling from their ancestors, their supportive creative process and their own life experience.
