Voices | Poetry in Motion is a one-hour mixed-program contemporary dance performance featuring fourteen new works collaboratively choreographed by the Voices Dance Project's company dancers.
The pieces explore the themes of fourteen poems written by IBPOC and 2SLGBTQIA poets. Through poignant choreography, blending contemporary ballet, modern dance, graham technique and belly dance, these emerging dancers bring the poets' prose to life, allowing audiences to experience the stories, motifs, emotions, and imagery of the poems not only through the written word, but also through the language of dance.
Original score by: Jack Hui Litster
Under the artistic direction of Sarah Squizzato and Jasmine van Schouwen
