Led by dance icons Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, Complexions Contemporary Ballet has awakened audiences to a new, exciting genre with their singular approach of reinventing dance and contemporary ballet. Armed with a rich Alvin Ailey lineage and a cadre of 16 stunning dancers, Complexions has been hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer and “game-changing” by London’s The Guardian.
The first half of the evening will feature an eclectic selection of works from Complexions' 30-year history. The second act features a new work from 2023, For Crying Out Loud, in which Mr. Rhoden has choreographed a suite of works to iconic U2 hits including Where the Streets Have No Name, With or Without You, and Pride (In the Name of Love).
