Dallas Black Dance Theatre has released a new dance video called "The Long Wait."

"The Long Wait" was originally choreographed for DBDT: Encore!, and set to be presented in April. Unfortunately, the world premiere was canceled due to COVID-19.

The dance features a speech delivered by Robert Kennedy, after the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The work addresses the unity of a group upon the death of one of their own. The choreographic duo of Madison Olandt and Derion Loman saw History on Repeat in the death of George Floyd.
