In African societies, dance serves many complex social purposes. Often there is no clear distinction between ritual celebration, social recreation, and history-keeping. African Diasporic dances, Samba and tap dance, line dance, hip hop, Capoeira, and twerking are all dance styles that have their origins on the continent of Africa.
Camille A. Brown and Dancers is a group that is reclaiming Black narratives for Black and brown people and elevating African Diasporic culture to its rightful place in American society. Spreading the joy of dance, they create and present performances that celebrate community, investigate historical and contemporary culture and recognize our shared humanity.
In addition to the dance performance, Camille A. Brown Dance Company will be offering a workshop with the Black Heritage Trail of NH and The Music Hall. For information and tickets for the BHTNH workshop, click here.
The event is brought to you by the Music Hall
