Led by dance icons Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, Complexions Contemporary Ballet has awakened audiences to a new, exciting genre with their singular approach to contemporary ballet. Armed with a rich Alvin Ailey lineage and a cadre of 16 stunning dancers, Complexions has been hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer and “game changing” by London’s The Guardian.
The program opens with favorites from Retro-Suite, a series of short works celebrating 30 years as a company, and finishes with LOVE ROCKS, set to music by the iconic Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter, Lenny Kravitz. It is an ode to love, humanity, diversity, and an invitation for us to come together.
