Urban Love Suite is a joy-filled, rhythmically infectious love letter celebrating the cultural connections between Black and Brown communities worldwide, from Dakar to Havana, from New Orleans to Chicago, to New York City’s Harlem, South Bronx, and San Juan Hill. This vibrant evening-length work, created in collaboration with the artists of Sekou McMiller & Friends, draws on African diasporic traditions from salsa and mambo, jazz, house, stepping, and Black social and street dance forms. Propelled by the pulse of live music, the work traces the rhythms and human experiences that transcend barriers, exploring the connections, divergences, and shared histories among Afro-Latin, Afro-Caribbean, and African-American experiences. Urban Love Suite dances from the past into the future, celebrating a reunion of cultures with a renewed sense of oneness.

This New York premiere is supported by the co-commision of Jacob’s Pillow Joan B. Hunter New Work Commission and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts as part of the Pasculano Collaborative for Contemporary Dance.
