Ephrat Asherie Dance performs Shadow Cities, a piece originally created in collaboration with Grammy Award-winning pianist and composer Arturo O'Farrill. Performed by seven dancers and four musicians, the work is a contemplative, raucous, and celebratory reflection on the unexpected ways people encounter their most enlivened selves. Ephrat Asherie Dance is dedicated to celebrating street and club dance culture rooted in Black and Latine vernacular dances including breaking, hip-hop, house, and waacking. This marks the company's return to Jacob's Pillow since their 2018 premiere of ODEON.
