Black America 250* New York Performances

“Black America 250*” arrives at Littlefield as a live, dance-forward event framed for a New York audience. With featured performers Zach Cherry and Chris Redd, it uses bodies and timing as much as text, moving between social history and present-day gesture. In a city where anniversary culture often turns into branding, the piece treats commemoration as something contested and unfinished. Its most pointed insight is that celebration can read like choreography, and choreography can expose who gets counted.
