7NMS | Marjani Forté-Saunders + Everett Saunders

PROPHET is a multi-year year study and portraiture on the Emcee/Lyricist. Manifesting as a Memoir, Film, and album, PROPHET’s performance will use the mastery of contemporary dance and embodiment to illustrate the transcendental voyage of this artist, while illuminating the essential role of the body in their maturation. Premiering at Abrons Arts Center in Fall 2022, PROPHET will continue development over confirmed residencies at EMPAC and Kelly Strayhorn Theater.

7NMS: Marjani Forté-Saunders + Everett Saunders work on the land of the Tongva and Hahamogna Peoples (Pasadena, CA), and Lenape People (New York, NY).

Estimated Artist Fee: $15,000/performance or $20,000/week long residency.
