SUMMARY:Let 'im Move You: This Is a Success and A Study
DESCRIPTION:Let ‘im Move You\, a series of performance and installation works\, is a continuation of jumatatu and Donte’s work within and in response to J-Sette’s movement vocabulary and Black queer performance aesthetics. In A Study\, performed by the artists\, J-Sette is a base of experimentation into the role of strategy both in dance making and social design. This Is a Success\, the second performance work in the series\, is a duet performed by jumatatu and dancer William Robsinon that explores notions of African-American exceptionalism as expressed through the middle class\, Black American values reiterated in the J-Sette form. J-Sette’s rhythmic rigor and team-oriented execution of in-time formal improvisations allow the artists to flirtatiously tease their audiences through playful games of rhythm\, pattern\, and attention. \nThe two respective duets inform the larger group work\, Let ‘im Move You: This is a Formation\, which will be performed at Abrons Arts Center October 10 – 12. Purchase tickets for Let ‘im Move You: This is a Success and a Study and Let ‘im Move You: This is a Formation and receive a $5 discount on your order!

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 DJ Rena Anakwe.  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:terrestrial in American Realness
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the hot brown granules in both desert dirt and beach sand\, terrestrial is a performance and visual examination of humans as earth and Black humans as having a long\, continuing terrestrial history that far precedes—and will outlive—the past five centuries of white supremacy’s specific oppressions.  The movement patterns are pathways\, appearing and dissolving into geometric returns\, similar to traces of dust on the desert horizon or footprints embedded in the surface of the soil\, skin.  A type of court dance referencing an embodied time capsule\, the work assembles fragments of history\, existing in a subterranean world. \nThe work is directed by jumatatu m. poe\, with video design by Tayarisha Poe and performance by dancers jumatatu and Samantha Speis.  An early showing of this in-progress work was featured in Gibney’s Gathering Place: Black Queer Land(ing)\, curated by Marýa Wethers.  The work was initiated through a residency at School for Contemporary Dance and Thought organized through Movement Research.
