I flew down to Miami, to document these 3 different dance groups, merging their talents and cultures, to create one dance.
brought together three different dance companies: Reggie Wilson and his company are New York-based. Noble Douglas Dance hails from Trinidad, and Black Umfolosi is a Zimbabwe-based cappella company. Together, with a total of thirteen dancers, five men and six women, these companies created a production layered with traditional dance, spirituals, pop, and hip-hop. In the process they create a community not only among the dancers themselves, but also between the dancers and the audience.
Reggie Wilson and the Fist & Heel Performance Group, was a transformative experience for me.
