Lincoln Center Summer for the City presents Urban Bush Women's 40th Anniversary Haint Blu | Episodic Chapters

The Brooklyn-based collective Urban Bush Women celebrates their 40th Anniversary with their site responsive ensemble dance-theater work Haint Blu, seeped in memory and magic. Known as the color that Southern families paint their front porches to ward off bad spirits, Haint Blu explores the movements, histories, and stories of our elders and ancestors and reflects on what has been lost across generations and what can be recovered. Haint Blu takes us to the magical place where spirits share their legacies, journey onward, and leave the thick residue of their knowing behind. Haint Blu | Episodic Chapters is a migratory/participatory journey where folks will travel throughout the Lincoln Center campus. This FREE event is General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up!
