MADC is elated to be premiering current company artist Ellicia Clayton’s new work, Come Sunday; the reimagining of the deconstructed repertory work, Thoughts; an audience favorite, Sweet Seventies’ Suite; and the premiere of Legacy. Ellicia Clayton’s Come Sunday investigates the following questions in her 5 section work: Have you ever questioned Salvation? Is it ever too late to be saved? Thoughts examines how we see ourselves, what ways that we show up for ourselves, and practices that cultivate self-love. Sweet Seventies' Suite explores grief, loss, and joy towards a loved one who transitioned to the spiritual realm. Legacy is rooted in joy as a form of resistance. It fosters pride and a positive sense of self by highlighting the valuable aspects of Black people from the First Great Migration, the first Harlem Renaissance, and the second Harlem Renaissance.
Please note that Speyer Hall @ University Settlement is ADA accessible with a wheelchair ramp for entry into the building, an elevator, and wheelchair access for seating.
