Alonzo King's LINES Ballet: Signs and Wonders

This San Francisco-based dance company colors outside the lines to bring forth works that re-imagine, reinvigorate and reinvent ballet. Originally commissioned by the Dance Theatre of Harlem, Signs and Wonders incorporates indigenous drumming and vocals from a myriad of African tribes, as it examines the relationship between contemporary ballet and African musical traditions.
