Performance

I Am Woman

1 upcoming performance in New York

At the Brooklyn Paramount, *I Am Woman* reframes a well-known feminist anthem from the early 1970s inside a contemporary dance setting. The song’s history as a mass-market hit that also carried women’s liberation politics gives the evening its cultural weight, even in a city where the message has long circulated through clubs, marches, and repertory stages. Featured performer Patrice Roberts delivers the material with a plainspoken vocal presence, treating each number as a statement. The show’s restraint lets the lyric’s authority do the work.
