Complexions Contemporary Ballet is a company dedicated to removing boundaries and transcending the limits of performance. Artistic directors Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson’s lifelong appreciation for the artistic and aesthetic appeal of multiculturalism informs the cornerstone of their approach. Complexions’ mix of methods, style and cultures has produced an entirely new and exciting movement: an open, continually evolving form of dance reflecting the movement of our world. Join this highly acclaimed dance company as they unveil an originally commissioned work by City Parks Foundation this season.
Dancin’ Downtown at the Joyce Theater, produced by Dancers Responding to AIDS, is the only competition providing dance students the opportunity to be seen by such a diverse and distinguished group of dance luminaries on one of the most prestigious dance stages in New York City -- The Joyce Theater. This unique competition benefits Dancers Responding to AIDS (DRA), a program of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. Watch the top two winning groups of this contest, Innersoul Dance Project and New Jersey Dance Theatre Ensemble, perform a short piece and get a glimpse into the freshest faces of dance today.
