Fragments of Time

Fragments of Time will feature Artistic Director’s Alan Obuzor’s 2016 work Un-Preservation of Humanism, which first premiered in 2016. This work is set to the stirring and emotional music of Ezio Bosso. In this piece, the dancers are on pointe while melding together movement that is grounded, visceral, and human. This piece abstractly takes a look at humans, human conflict, and the way that some groups of people have treated, ‘othered’, and subjugated their fellow humans throughout our existence as a species. The program will also showcase Texture’s dynamic resident dancers performing other new works by Alan Obuzor and guest choreographers.

Join us to witness in-person this striking, emotional and thought provoking performance. Fragments of Time – On stage September 20-22!
