Journey to CELL

 

After a year of cancelled shows, live performance is back! On June 11th and 12th, Toledo’s Human Experience Modern Dance Company will come together to put on “CELL”, a performance showcasing the talents of both THE’s adult company and its apprentice company, THE2.

 

 

 

Artistic Directors Ashley Hill (THE Modern Dance Co.) and Rapheal Griffin (THE2 Modern Dance Co.) have choreographed works based on the overall themes of the show; science, transformation, and, of course, the human experience. THE has transformed greatly in the past year by welcoming ten new company members, and changing and adapting to follow public health guidelines.

 

As a non-profit 501(c)3, THE Modern Dance Co. strives to work toward creating a positive impact on our community, and our focus this year is food insecurity. For this performance, we have partnered with our venue, Epiphany Lutheran Church, and a portion of our ticket sales will benefit their “Feed Your Neighbor” program.
