Dixon Place & Creative Performances are proud to present ‘Threat to Democracy’, a multidisciplinary dance event.
This multidisciplinary collaborative dance performance will unite spoken word artists and dance choreographers to confront the urgent challenges facing democracy in the United States, today. Through raw, evocative movement and powerful spoken narratives, this showcase will examine issues like voter rights, misinformation, disinformation, systemic inequalities, and the fragility of democratic ideals. In a time when civil liberties and collective voices are increasingly under threat, ‘Threat to Democracy’ will serve as a reflection of resilience, sparking dialogue and inspiring hope for a more equitable and inclusive future.
