The Samoan and Maori cultures meet modern dance in the potent, hyperkinetic Black Grace Dance Company. Under director-choreographer Neil Ieremia, Black Grace blends stomping, Samoan slap dancing, stunningly beautiful group singing, and modern choreography of a high order. Black Grace Dance Company, which sold out its Boston debut engagement in 2007, returns for another dynamic, exhilarating, raw, and authentic dance journey.
"[Neil Ieremia] has spread his artistic roots in several rich pasts and grown up and out into a sunlight of his own making."
—The New York Times
"It’s unabashedly virile, dangerous and
terrifically exciting."
