Heralded by the Boston Globe for its “exuberant, gorgeous and delightfully oddball style,” David Dorfman Dance returns to The Joyce with Prophets of Funk/Dance to the Music, a work that reinvigorates “boomer memories to the sounds of Sly and the Family Stone.” (Boston Phoenix). A celebration of the band’s groundbreaking, visceral and political music, a tribute to the ‘funk’ of everyday people, the piece leaves everyone dancing in their seats, except for those choosing to join the performers on stage,” says the choreographer. “Dorfman in league with Sly and the Family Stone? Irresistible.” The Village Voice
A huge hit when she appeared at The Joyce in 2010, Camille A. Brown is noted for mixing modern dance techniques with West African dance elements to produce “focused bursts of energy and frozen positions that explode into motion” (The New York Times). At The Joyce, her company will present three snazzy performances of a program that includes the Groove to Nobody’s Business, set to Ray Charles and Brandon McCune, and Been There, Done That, a duet filled with “Brown's considerable and effortless humor."
