- DescriptionThe Gogue Center presents the world premiere of Dorrance Dance's "The Center Will Not Hold" at the Woltosz Theatre—Friday, April 4.
Born from “a little room,” "The Center Will Not Hold" is a short duet created and performed by Ephrat Asherie and Michelle Dorrance in December 2022. The now expanded and reimagined work features 11 singular performers deeply rooted in one or many street, club and vernacular dances: house, breaking, hip hop, tap dance, Chicago Footwork, Detroit Jit, Litefeet, Memphis Jookin and body percussion
"The Center Will Not Hold" features original music composed by Donovan Dorrance with live percussion by world class drummer and percussionist, John Angeles. It premiered as a 30-minute piece at New York City Center’s 2023 Fall for Dance Festival and is currently being developed into an evening-length work which will be premiered at the Gogue Performing Arts Center.
This performance is presented as part of the Gogue Center’s 2024–25 Dance & Movement Series
Our 2024–25 season is sponsored by Walt & Ginger Woltosz.
