Event Info
“My hope is that the next generation of dancers can start where I’ve arrived: knowing that our art form gives us the tools we need to acknowledge we are important and we belong,” emphasizes EMERGE125 Artistic Director Tiffany Rea-Fisher. Grounded in the vibrant artistic culture of Harlem, the Black female-led dance hub has risen above NYC to inspire audiences around the world.
Artistic Director Tiffany Rea-Fisher has curated a mixed program of choreographic works for the Alaska Tour, each showcasing the athleticism, empathy, and joy that defines her signature movement style. From the frenetic energy of Poly String Theory to the infectious rhythms of Memphis Hesitation, each piece invites the audience to immerse themselves in a realm of movement and connection. Spirit Celestial embodies the innovative essence of E125, while Tilted Arc challenges perceptions and expands boundaries.
Leading the way in elevated standards for dancer care, cross-disciplinary collaborations with leading artists, and using movement as a catalyst for community building, EMERGE125 has become a true frontrunner in 21st century dance.
Inspired by everything from visual art to the neuroscience of synchronized heartbeats, EMERGE125 proves that modern dance can be accessible and relatable to people of all ages and backgrounds.
