FRIDAY, SEPT 10
Doors 6:30 / Show 7:30 Founded in 2016 by Tatiana Desardouin with a mission to promote the authenticity and contributions of social dance styles and cultures like street and clubbing, Passion Fruit Dance Company comes to the park for the world premiere of TRAPPED, a brand new work choreographed by Tatiana Desardouin with developmental support from BRIC and developed at MASS MoCA and the Guggenheim’s Works & Process residency program. A piece performed by Mai Lê Hô, Lauriane Ogay, Nubian Nene, Soo and Tatiana Desardouin. TRAPPED features music by the Detroit-based multi-genre producer Saadiq Bolden, who will introduce his music accompanied by DJ Pfunk with visuals conceptualized and created by Lya Pouleyy, K.niin, Loreto Jamlig and Desardouin that segues into a live soundtrack to Passion Fruit’s performance. After the show, stay for an audience-wide dance party, hosted by the DJ collective "Soul Summit", a streetwise celebration that sprang up in Fort Greene in 2001 honoring the distinguished history of black and queer house music and culture, and "St.James Joy" originated during the pandemic. The night, conceived in collaboration with Desardouin, continues BRIC’s tradition of celebrating and providing a platform for dance styles outside the mainstream contemporary dance world. Developmental support: BRIC House, MASS MOCA, Works & Process bubble residencies 2021.
