Peter London Global Dance Company in its 11th season presents a one-of-a-kind, electrifying dance concert. Ancestral Ground features a magnificent array of choreographic voices loaded with new-kids-on-the-block fierceness and beyond-the-wall innovation.
Miami's leading multiethnic choreographers display the rich multicultural heritage of the city’s global community in a colorful explosion of Afro-Caribbean and Latin flair, imbued with spiritual energy and duende while sizzling with Miami heat and agua dulce. These virtuosic performances are accompanied by vibrant commissioned scores.
Haunting and otherworldly music by Ezra Haugabrooks, founding artistic director of The Ballet and Dance Orchestra, plays during Peter London’s voluptous and revealing "UNFOLD," a metamorphosis of divine creatures of sky, land and sea. Alondra Balbuena's sophisticated and cool "IMPERIUM" offers a large slice of Miami sassyness, drawn out by Elija Gee’s luscious and hypnotic score. Kashia Kancey exhibits her take-no-prisoners choreographic intelligence in "AND SO I RUN," a near cataclysmic explosion of mind, body and soul movement, accompanied by waves of joyous, heart-pounding music by Jeremy Jordan. Award-winning choreographer Justin Rapaport’s world premiere duet "AROUND, WOULD YOU TURN" is an incomparable blend of technical virtousity and passion. Haitian-American choreographer Vitolio Jeune dramatizes his sibling relationship in an intricate, explosive duet of brotherly love. Marion Skye Brook delivers a wild punch with the world premiere of her ensemble work.
This is not a normal concert, but a divine experience created by our artists to celebrate the resilience of our community during the pandemic.
