Two ballet dancers from Collage Dance Collective perform in front of a large, ornate frame against a backdrop of floating newspapers and a glowing halo, rising in an abstract, surreal setting.

Collage Dance Collective’s Rise

Experience RISE, a history-making ballet, set to Dr. King’s final speech, choreographed by Kevin Thomas.

Plus, this program ascends even higher with the addition of award-winning choreographic voices!

Enjoy Amy Hall Garner’s transcendent Saint Glory, inspired by her grandparents Catholic and Baptist roots, Camille A. Brown’s soul-stirring New Second Line, inspired by the events of Hurricane Katrina, and a world premiere by Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater alum, Hope Boykin. RISE, happening the first weekend of Black History Month 2024, also features Collage’s professional company performing alongside its promising dance stars of tomorrow.

The event is finished.
