Event Description

The 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Center's 2022/23 Mainstage Series continues with choreographer, educator, and producer Johnnie Cruise Mercer's 'to those who have seed in the ground', bringing together two generations of artists with the intention of calling upon (and embodying) collective inner will. In Person: Thursday, February 2, 7:30 pm ET; Online: Friday, February 3, 12 pm ET – Monday, February 6, 12 pm ET. Tickets from $20 / $10 student at https://www.92ny.org/event/johnnie-cruise-mercer.

Inspired by William McDowell's 2016 album, Sounds of Revival, Mercer comments "'to those who have seed in the ground' is structured as a movement sermon on the parable of the mustard seed. Rooted in the practices, and choreographies of my Black, African, American bloodline, and led by an ensemble of movement artists (both professional and in-process), tonight will happen as a series of meta-physical bouts (works) all rooted and calling onto the spiritual pasts of our ancestors." He further notes, "my work, my art, is my contribution to my community. It is my way of guiding my people towards understanding and surrendering to history, to our shared epic memory. I am interested in where we are, and through feeling, together, finding out where we will be going next."
