Distinguished hip hop and modern dance choreographer Rennie Harris will choreograph a new ballet that will reflect the rich traditions of African American contributions to dance evident in PHILADANCO’s signature style, while incorporating the contemporary voice of Harris. The work will be set to Afro-jazz and funk fusion music, and will relate the theme of communal ties to the birth of hip hop.
