Led by dance icons Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, Complexions Contemporary Ballet has awakened audiences to a new, exciting genre with their singular approach of reinventing dance and contemporary ballet.
Armed with a rich Alvin Ailey lineage and a cadre of 16 stunning dancers, the company has been hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer and “game changing” by London’s The Guardian.
Complexions creates a dynamic and inclusive performance experience that transcends boundaries, captivates audiences, and inspires a profound appreciation for the limitless possibilities of movement. Guided by a commitment to artistic exploration, they push the boundaries of classical and contemporary dance, fusing various styles and techniques to create a unique and groundbreaking repertoire. They embrace the unexpected while maintaining the precision and power of ballet.
The pioneering company seeks to remove traditional boundaries and embrace the beauty of differences by presenting courageous, cutting-edge programming and encouraging dancers to be authentically themselves.
