A ritual of femme power and connection rooted in two decades of research and participation in street and contemporary dance cultures.

Again, There Is No Other (The Remix) is a dark and joyful ritual merging street dance forms and contemporary dance. The work interrogates fear of the Feminine in patriarchal culture, asking: If perceptions of race and gender are inseparable, can we be a post-gender society when we are far from a post-race society?

Through hybridizing the nightclub, the cypher (the circle), and the theater, five physically multilingual, femme-identified dancers explore touch, support, the imperative of connection, the tensions of identity, and the embrace of difference.
