B. Moore Dance presents The Encore, a collection of choreographic works created by Bridget L. Moore. For this one-of-a-kind performance, audiences will see extraordinary performances by the company and aspiring artists of the next generation.

Rooted in African American and global dance aesthetics, the evening consists of an artistically diverse program from the company's repertoire. Coupled with love and beauty, Rose Gold is contemporary and classical in its form and conveys the greatest gift of expression to the world, Love. Set to the lyrical and dynamic vocals of Damon K. Clark, Rose Gold is a touching work of art, enveloping the viewer with the human experience and symbolism of a rose.

Southern Recollections-Romare Bearden, inspired by the eponymous Harlem Renaissance painter, is an eclectic and jazzy work that forges the past, highlighting the present. Moore created the work through a (2012) Princess Grace Choreography Fellowship Award from the Princess Grace Foundation, USA. The piece continues to evolve and thrill audiences today with its striking visuals and sultry movements, reflecting the collage paintings of Romare Bearden, in vivid color and movement.

To complement the program, Uncharted Territory, inspired by Moore's travels across Asia, explores and challenges what dance can be from a forward-thinking, fashionista, and cultural point of view. Costumes are designed by longtime collaborator, Fernando Hernandez, and illustrates the impact of cultures by blending haute couture with the combination of grace and pure athleticism.
