In commemoration of America’s 250th anniversary, Step Afrika! premieres The Fruits of Our Labor—a powerful new production exploring rhythm, resilience, and the unfinished story of the American experience.
Blending stepping, percussion, and striking visual imagery, this visceral new piece examines what it means to believe in a nation still in the making. Created in collaboration with artists Jakari Sherman, Conrad R. Kelly II, and Vusi Mdoyi, the explosive movement and a bold palette of red, white, and blue, ask the nation: What have we inherited and what are we still fighting to become?
Theatre Washington will present Theatre Week 2026, offering discounted tickets to more than 30 productions along with free pop-up performances at airports and a Metro station across the DMV region.
Arena Stage announced the first five productions of its 76th season, including world premieres from Step Afrika! and a new musical, plus Tony-nominated PRIMA FACIE, PURPOSE, and a holiday tradition.
