From the organizers: Broadway veteran & San Diego native Jeremy McQueen brings his Emmy® award-winning New York City–based ballet collaborative to San Diego for the west coast premiere of two original ballets: WILD and A Mother's Rite. The Black Iris Project's mission is to harness the Black community's inherent creative spirit to encourage and inspire youth of color to pursue art, movement and music as an expressive outlet and a means for collective healing. “Since its inception in 2016, The Black Iris Project has been committed to telling Black narratives through ballet, using art as a mirror to reflect the times and consistently intertwining themes of social justice in everything we do. As someone who has worked to break through many doors in the world of dance, particularly ballet, I feel it is our duty as artists to be a catalyst for those that are unheard, unseen, and undervalued. I am committed to, now more than ever, dismantling those barriers through my art.” -Jeremy McQueen Content Advisory: This performance contains strobe lights, haze, profanity, and scenes depicting physical and sexual violence.

American is sailing between New York and England with a comically colorful assemblage of passengers. Song, dance, and farcical antics ensue in this hilarious shipboard romp wrapped in one of Cole Porter’s most magical scores. Anything Goes is delightful, delicious and de-lovely. “Cole Porter songs and tap-dancing sailors? What’s not to love?… The show is so packed with daffy physical shtick, comical dialogue and those still dazzlingly clever Cole Porter lyrics that it’s impossible not to surrender.” -The Hollywood Reporter Music & Lyrics by: Cole Porter Original Book by: P.G.
