Iconic Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s ‘We Shall Overcome’ Transcribed Into Dance

Reimagine the relevance of Dr. Martin Luther Luther King, Jr’s 57-year-old speech “We Shall Overcome” in Tommie-Waheed Evans’ “Bodies as Site of Faith and Protest.” The dancers perform across the Dallas landscape and explore the ideas of bodies uniting in protest through faith.

You’ll be fascinated by the world premiere of Joshua L. Peugh’s I am Large, as he uses DBDT dancers’ perspective to pose through a collage of music and dance styles the question, “What is Dallas Black Dance Theatre?”
