Singular dance performances, film screenings and master classes will be part of The Black Rep’s inaugural Phoenix Rising Performance Series to launch next month at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in Grand Center.

The program is in honor of The Black Rep’s original name (Phoenix Theatre Troupe) when it was founded by Ron Himes in 1976 as an organization committed to creating opportunities for Black artists and providing platforms for theatre, dance and other creative expressions from the African American perspective.
