Ronald K. Brown- the 2015 New York City Season and His Choreographic Process

Audiences will see two works from 1999, Grace (also in the repertoire of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater) and Gatekeeper (also in the repertoire of the Philadanco).  These works, an amalgam of West African, urban vernacular, and modern dance, were  groundbreaking in the development of Brown’s unmistakable style. Another season highlight The Subtle One (2014), will be performed to live accompaniment by composer Jason Moran and the Bandwagon. Through Time and Culture (2014), will give audiences an opportunity to see Brown perform a solo work.
