Black Nativity

Reimagined for its 34th year, Hughes’ Christmas story dazzles with musical traditions from across the African diaspora, electrifying choreography, and rich visual iconography from long-time company member Seitu Ken Jones. Bring your loved ones to celebrate what it means to care for the oppressed and hold onto hope, even on the darkest of nights. 

Please note: Due to ticket availability, we will open them up for students and families now, and then to teachers on Monday, 11/23.
