The iconic Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr’s “We Shall Overcome” speech will be transcribed into dance through Tommie-Waheed Evans’ “Bodies as Site of Faith and Protest.” The dance will illustrate a performance across the Dallas landscape as the dancers explore the idea of bodies uniting in protest through faith.
Within the performance, Joshua L. Peugh’s world premiere of I am Large will be displayed. Peugh will utilize the Dallas Black Dance Theatre’s dancer’s perspective to pose through a collage of music and dance styles.
