Program

Urbanity Dance, Boston’s premier contemporary dance company, uses cutting edge contemporary dance to compel its audience to vastly expand its worldview while embracing and celebrating the beauty of individual differences. Drawing from the techniques and traditions of various dance styles including classical ballet, modern, hip hop, and West African, Urbanity dance artists use contemporary dance to communicate a story of empathy, a story of partnership, and a story of emotion. In “Dancing in Each Other’s Shoes,” Urbanity dance artists and the students embark together on a unique dance exploration of compassion, kindness, and respect. This fresh and highly interactive performance celebrates diversity and encourages community. Through the art of movement, Urbanity Dance’s exceptionally engaging dance artists encourage students to foster a fuller understanding of themselves and their relationships. Students will ultimately be inspired and empowered to utilize lessons of self-expression and acceptance in all aspects of their lives.
