Led by Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, “hailed as two of the greatest virtuosos ever to emerge from [Alvin] Ailey” (The New York Times), Complexions is known for high-octane movement, an evocative style and a penchant for pushing the boundaries of ballet. This “matchless American dance company” (The Philadelphia Inquirer) performs the local premiere of For Crying Out Loud, set to a soundtrack of acoustic U2 hits. Drawing on the grit and honesty of these stripped-down, iconic songs, the work explores the vulnerability of the human condition in its most conflicted state. The world premiere of This Time, With Feeling and additional works by Rhoden complete the program, each showcasing the technical precision, athletic prowess and sheer passion of this breathtaking company.
Penn Live Arts is at Annenberg Center, 3680 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA.
