-Point Person: Joselli Dean

-I AM… is presented by Repertory Dance Theatre (RDT) as part of the University of Utah’s Dr. Martin Luther King Week celebration and will be hosted by the University of Utah School of Dance. RDT is also performing I AM… as part of their 2024-25 season. More information about RDT performances can be found here.

-I AM… is a story of truth. A story of vulnerability. A story of a Black woman. A story that allows one to see, feel, and breathe in the undeniable layers that expose us all to what it means to be human. Does one ever pause to truly see the life experiences of others and what these experiences have done to shape the person next to us? Do we bother to take into account that our own life experiences should be the best tool for learning to empathize, listen, support, and love more deeply? Are you part of the problem or do you choose to stand on the side of solution? And if you sit somewhere in the middle, in the shadows, you too will be exposed...

Location: Marriott School of Dance
