Experience the power and passion of Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH) as the company returns with a bold, unforgettable season. The centerpiece is the revival of Firebird, DTH’s iconic take on the classic tale of love and transformation. First created in 1982 by John Taras, with stunning sets and costumes by Geoffrey Holder accompanied by live music from the Gateways Festival Orchestra conducted by Jeri Lynne Johnson (April 16, 18, 19) and Tania León (April 17). This DTH signature work, set in the Caribbean, is a feast for the senses.
The program also includes dynamic works by DTH Artistic Director Robert Garland, whose choreography blends classical ballet with a modern pulse as well as William Forsythe and Jodie Gates. Join the celebration of 57 years of trailblazing artistry with DTH. Let Your Spirit Take Flight!
