The Dragon Sisters Bring Their Debut EP To Life At JACK With THE QUICK FLIGHT TOUR

Beloved nightlife stars The Dragon Sisters bring their debut EP to life at JACK with The Quick Flight Tour, August 25 - 26, 2022.

The Dragon Sisters bring their unique blend of dance, music, theater, hip-hop and pure thrill to JACK for two nights only.

The Quick Flight Tour is an evening of dynamic performance, live theater, and original music created, performed and directed by The Dragon Sisters. This production explores themes of community, non-binary gender expression, and navigating the fine art world as queer black artists. It illustrates the many sides of The Dragon Sisters: classical dancers and rap artists, soulmates and collaborators, bearers of historical trauma and activists.
The show is a three-dimensional realization of their debut studio EP, The Fine Print, featuring band mates John Feliciano, David Frazier, and Kala. It is a love letter to their community and their sisterhood.

The Dragon Sisters (Issa & Odessa) are an award-winning multidisciplinary performance duo based in Brooklyn. Their collaboration began while studying at the Conservatory of Dance at Purchase College. Their careers in professional dance includes contracts with The Martha Graham Dance Company, Gallim Dance, Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company, Punchdrunk Sleep No More and the Metropolitan Opera. They have presented work with Mana Contemporary, Tribeca Performing Arts Center, and Gibney Dance. The Dragon Sisters are major forces in the NYC art and nightlife scene, and have been in residency at Industry, JACK, Gibney, Tribeca PAC, and Mana Contemporary. They won 2021 Glam Awards for Best Duo and Breakthrough Performers. Their debut EP, The Fine Print, was released in 2021; they have presented live music in collaboration with SummerStage Festival, Lady Fag's Lady Land Festival, Bartschland, and SONY Hall.
