Sovereign Shoulders presents an evening of two M.F.A. in Dance Thesis performances:
Trazando Taíno, choreographed by Annie-Laura Irizarry Peréz, is a choreographic exploration rooted in the ancestral practices of the Indigenous Taíno peoples of the Caribbean.
Weight of Faith, choreographed by Iyalochá Nadia Milad Issa, is a series of dance eulogies that reify and re-humanize all lives lost due to the threat of religious intolerance, the threat of disembodied mourning, collective protest and healing.
