EMERGE125 is a Black and female-led hub for dance performance, creation, and education based in Harlem & New York’s Adirondacks. They’ll be leaping through Alaska fall of 2024 with a cast of 8 dancers, and we’re thrilled to partner with Mitkof Dance Troupe to bring them to Petersburg for a performance (and stay tuned for educational opportunities while they’re in town as well!).
Artistic Director Tiffany Rea-Fisher: “I consider my signature to be a combination of empathy, joy, and athleticism; not always in that order. An idea that I’ve always held as true is that people primarily go to the theater to escape, so I ask myself if I wanted to escape, what would I want to see? Empathy, joy, and athleticism.”
Thank you to our event partner Mitkof Dance Troupe and event sponsors Petersburg Community Foundation and TourWest for helping to sponsor this event!
