Rennie Harris Puremovement American Street Dance Theater will perform Nuttin' but a Word on Tuesday, April 30. This acclaimed work pushes the boundaries of street dance movement vocabulary and the evolving stories about our neighborhoods. It inspires audiences to view street dance culture through an appreciative lens while challenging the viewers' perspective of street and Hip-hop dance.

Immediately following the performance, Brian Seibert, Yale Theater and Performance studies lecturer and New York Times dance critic, will moderate a conversation and audience Q&A session with the artists.

Rennie Harris Puremovement’s visit includes a public dance class in the Schwarzman Dance Studio on Sunday, April 28 offered as part of the Center’s new EveryBody Dances at Yale Schwarzman Center dance class series.
