Performance
Inspired by the childhood concept of parallel play, evening of contemporary dance that places seemingly unrelated worlds side by side. Featuring repertory works alongside new creations, the program moves between playful satire and quiet reflection. Humor meets grief, athleticism meets stillness, and everyday encounters give way to moments of profound reflection, inviting audiences to discover the threads that bind seemingly separate experiences.
Community
Located in Mni Sota Makoce since 2019, eMartin Dance uses the universal language of dance to activate community discourse through our work. Led by founder and Artistic Director Erika Martin, we explore human experience and identity politics with innovative choreography that encourages audiences to engage social constructs in a new way. Alongside our creative process, community programs have been an integral part of our company from its inception.
