UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance

UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance will present The Equality of Night and Day a new work by choreographer Ronald K. Brown. The performance blends African dance traditions and contemporary dance vocabulary to create an aesthetic style that is earthy, powerful and intimate. The piece challenges the presumptions of balance, equity, and fairness with respect to young people, women, and people of color, in light of contrary current events and features an original score by acclaimed jazz pianist Jason Moran and spoken word by educator and activist Angela Davis. Ronald K. Brown seamlessly explores liberation, community responsibility, spirituality and struggle.
