Lula Washington Dance Theatre will bring three programs of modern dance to The Wallis this week.

Program A features excerpts from Washington’s THE MOVEMENT (2004) and Donald Bryd’s COMMUNION (1994), as well as work by Christopher Huggins, Rennie Harris, and a new piece by Anthony Burrell titled TEMPORARY SPACES (2017).

Programs B and C will open with the complete THE LITTLE ROCK NINE & THE MOVEMENT, and the closing night features THE MESSAGE (2017), a new work by Washington and her dancers.

Marcus L. Miller and his ensemble Freedom Jazz Movement will accompany the dancers on all three nights.
