Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts – Virtual – Rennie Harris Puremovement

Rennie Harris, “the most brilliant hip-hop choreographer in America,” (The New Yorker) returns with an evening of works including two that directly reflect on current tragedies facing our nation. A reworking of the acclaimed 1995 duet, A Day in the Life, tells the story of brothers who get caught up in a violent street altercation with the police, while Black Promises, set to music by Beyoncé, is a tormented solo about systemic police brutality against black men. It’s hip-hop storytelling at its finest by “the most profound choreographer of his idiom.” (The New York Times)
