America - Claire

America (Kennedy Center Meritorious Achievement Award Winner & Downtown Urban Theater Festival Audience Award Winner) is a theater/dance hybrid that explores ethnicity, race, religion, and culture in the United States. Sound collage, music and movement complement the text as it undresses stereotypes and prejudices, creating a provocative social commentary that challenges us to examine our belief systems.

"America is a pageant, a celebration of diversity in America. It focuses on the interactions of all the different groups that make up America today and how perceptions and misconceptions fuel the way Americans interact as a whole." -Professor Renee Charlow, Bowie State Universitysee less
