There are some Dayton Contemporary Dance Company dances that are requested time and again – audiences want, once more, to see the leaps that lifted them out of their seats, the split-second timing that had them blinking with disbelief, the moments that brought a tear, followed by a shout of triumph. They want to re-hear those same songs, and re-view those remembered moves that caused them to fall in love with DCDC. And DCDC is here to answer that request with BLACK BY POPULAR DEMAND — a soul-stirring return to the iconic works that define who they are. These are the dances audiences can’t get enough of — emotional, high-impact, and full of moments that lift you up and leave the room buzzing. At its heart is In My Father’s House, a gospel-soaked celebration choreographed by Chief Executive & Artistic Director Debbie Blunden-Diggs. Set to the unforgettable sounds of Kirk Franklin and the Family, it transforms the stage into a sanctuary where movement and music rejoice as one.
