In the Same Tongue is a new dance celebration choreographed by Emmy-nominated Dianne McIntyre, featuring original music by composer Diedre Murray and the poetry of Ntozake Shange. This 80-minute performance delves into the interplay between dance and music, exploring themes of language and expression through movement, sound, and narrative. Reviving elements of McIntyre's acclaimed company, Sounds in Motion, the piece reflects on artistic legacies from Harlem's 1920s salons to the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Audiences can expect an innovative blend of dynamic choreography and live music that highlights the connections between different forms of artistic expression.
