SUMMARY:Queer Slow Jam
DESCRIPTION:Maybe less of a throwback and more of a reclaiming: we are about to transform those memories of high school dances that many of us didn’t attend – at least not in the way we wanted to.  We are going to welcome the slow jam onto the dance floor\, and meet it with a close embrace – maybe just of ourselves\, or of a consensual partner… or maybe more than one.  Let’s get close; feel our wise hips swing into the same dimly lit spaces\, hear inhales and exhales from a mouth hovering near our ear\, pumping oxygen for a heart rate that’s pulsing a bit faster than usual…  Let’s see what we can get up to way down below 95 bpm.  Let’s be people dancing up on other people\, when we want to and when we are wanted.  Let’s give our permission for the proximity that we are feeling.  Let’s be queer and normal and strange and open and close… very close…  Sweating to the beat of slow motion.\n\nWe will be blessed in the space with the sage musical curations of our own DJ  dø√∑Ç@K∑\, alongside A²Z\, JADALAREIGN\, and Prdiva09.  Even as we may challenge\, tempt\, and transgress it\, we will honor that slow pulse\, the space in it\, the complex syncopations\, the polyrhythmicity.  Choreographers jumatatu m. poe and Donte Beacham will start off the night with a short instruction of some of the close dancing they have been experimenting with in rehearsal\, related to the hip swing of the J-Sette march\, and the importance of pelvic movement in African-descended dance forms.  Throughout the night\, the dancers of This Is a Formation will perform brief slow choreographies\, and also dance with you…

SUMMARY:Let 'im Move You: This Is a Formation
DESCRIPTION:This Is a Formation is the latest dance performance project in jumatatu m. poe and Jermone Donte Beacham’s Let ‘im Move You series\, a collection of performance and visual works centered around the artists’ explorations with the J-Sette form. Formation brings together 7 Black dancers\, a DJ\, and a lighting designer as performers for the work. Audiences travel within the performance space with relative freedom\, sharing the same spaces as performers. Live captured video design elements will focus on close-up capture of the performers for display on hanging panels throughout the space\, referencing both hyper-surveillance of Black people’s bodies\, and pop-star scale megalomania.

SUMMARY:Let 'im Move You: Installation
DESCRIPTION:Installation is an open-ended collection of installation works presented alongside performance work in jumatatu m. poe and Jermone Donte Beacham’s Let ‘im Move You series.

SUMMARY:Let 'im Move You: Intervention
DESCRIPTION:Part of jumatatu m. poe and Jermone Donte Beacham’s decade-long collaborative research into J-Sette performance\, Intervention activates histories of Black neighborhoods in The Bronx and the Lower East Side\, as it uses rhythm and precision as vehicles into subversion and satisfaction. On sidewalks and in alleyways\, jumatatu and Donte draw on J-Sette’s call-and-response structure to reveal the powerfully singular expression that can emerge within this highly regimented dance. J-Sette originated among drill teams and majorette lines of historically Black southern universities and continues to grab the attention of half-time stadium crowds—while having found a second life\, and new political meanings\, in the Black gay club scene. Performance routes are announced only hours before their intervention\, freeing the performers to agitate the boundaries of propriety and belonging\, and confront the historic imaginations and limitations of these spaces.
