Streaming this week from the Fisher Center at Bard:
“You’re ashamed to ask for mercy, and it is a shame that you have to ask for mercy.” —Ronald K. Brown, reflecting on Mercy.
Choreographer Ronald K. Brown and composer Meshell Ndegeocello revisit their collaboration Mercy, which premiered in the 2019 SummerScape Festival and is now streaming for the first time. A powerful call to action and a sublime embodiment of loving mercy, this stunning new dance speaks directly to this time of protest, change, and hope.
Mercy is presented through UPSTREAMING, The Fisher Center’s Virtual Stage.
