Description

The Actual Dance starring Chuk Obasi proudly brings a reimagined version of this award winning show as choreographed and directed by Kimani Fowlin

Chuk and Kimani bring movement and energy to an adaptation of this emotional and life-affirming play about life's ultimate journey. A love story with a happy ending, The Actual Dance is told through words, sound and movement.

This performance also features musicians Mike Rosengarten on guitar and Elmo Zapp on cello.

A love story with a happy ending, The Actual Dance is told through the eyes and heart of a husband as he struggles with his worst fears in what everyone expects to be his wife’s losing battle to breast cancer.

In the hour-long performance, and with original music, the story takes the audience on an emotional and uplifting journey that rewards them with an unexpected happy ending, and a universal, life-affirming lesson of hope and faith. The performance is followed by a discussion led by playwright Samuel A Simon.
