Underground
Performed by the Stӧrling Dance Theater
Merry (delayed) Christmas!
The vision for Storling Dance Theater’s UNDERGROUND began in the year 2000 as a positive approach to addressing growing divisiveness in our culture over race. The result of this vision is multi-faceted: Deep relationships across socio-economic and cultural divides, dialogue and listening that has brought understanding and active community, and a shared passion to work together for everyone’s good. This is an experience for everyone in America that is looking for solutions, unity and opportunity for all our citizens.The story of the Underground Railroad told in this unique and powerful way is a message that speaks to us today and shines as a beacon in the night calling us to safety and unity.
"...without doubt one of the most vivid, heartfelt
and theatrically astute pieces of dance theater
ever to grace a Kansas City stage" - Kansas City Star
