It took over two hours to get to the point of ‘’Reframing the Narrative” (Program A) at the Kennedy Center Opera House. My “ah-ha” moment came as B.B. King sang from a recording of “Let The Good Times Roll.” This is what the concert was meant to be—singing, dancing, and celebrating Black ballet dancers who have not been properly recognized. What a wonderful piece! I have never seen ballet dancers call out to the audience to join in on the hand-clapping and belting out the lyrics in “Bluff City Blues,” choreographed by Amy Hall Garner and performed by Collage Dance Collective.

EXPERIENCE ORIGINS, OCT. 23-25 AT PLAYHOUSE ON THE SQUARE

Four bold, unforgettable ballets. Three showtimes. One weekend to experience it all live.
