Melanized is a multimedia tap show looking at the strength it takes to live as a person of color. Through tap dance, live music, and film we will address systemic racism by looking into issues such as Red Lining, Concentration Camps, and Police Brutality. We will also showcase the beauty that comes with living as a person of color by exploring various art form created by POCs such as Gospel, R&B, and Konnakol.
Davon Suttles, in partnership with Keane Sense of Rhythm, is a fiscal year 2019 recipient of a Cultural Community Partnership grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature; and by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
Hennepin Theater Trust is a presenting partner of this project.
Cast includes Davon Suttles (producer, choreographer, dancer) Noah Brewington and Nina Maxwell (as dancers), Kennedy Hurst, Keston Wright, and Mackinnley Moren Jacobs (as singers). Musicians TBA.
There will also be an artist market pre-show from 6-7:30 each night.
