The Peter London Global Dance Company Premieres “WOMEN-ROSES-WATER” Virtually on December 26

Miami’s leading multicultural, contemporary dance ensemble, the Peter London Global Dance Company (PLGDC) celebrates its 10th anniversary with the virtual world premiere of WOMEN-ROSES-WATER, a contemporary and Afro-Caribbean dance fusion, with commissioned new music by The Ballet and Dance Orchestra, conducted by Ezra Haugabrooks.

The 10th Anniversary celebration, from December 26 to 31, will feature special performances by Award-winning American Jazz singer Nicole Henry, and Alvin Ailey dancer and first resident choreographer Jamar Roberts.

This virtual world premiere will also include works by Annellyse Munroe (former AILEY II company member), and Melissa Verdecia (Ballet Hispánico), who creates her fifth work for PLGDC with a dynamic and riveting retelling of the “she-roic” tale of political and feminine resistance by the Maribel sisters of the Dominican Republic, known internationally as Las Mariposas.



Admission to the virtual stream is a $10 donation, tickets are available through the Adrienne Arsht Center box office by calling (305) 949-6722, or online at www.arshtcenter.org.  Tickets are currently on-sale.
