A U G U S T 28TH is a choreopoem that delves into the layers of identity, memory, and resilience within the Black diaspora, examining how America, family, friendship, and love shape the evolution of our past, present, and future.
This show asks: how do our bodies hold trauma,
and how do we (Black folk) stop requiring excellence in exchange for joy?
Presented next in association with
New, zesty works by emerging artists and creative teams
who identify as women, non-binary, or gender non-conforming.
LimeFest 2025 is curated by Meghan Finn.
