Sidra Bell is one of Modern Dance’s most up-and-coming artists, sought-after across the globe and the nation. Mutual Dance Theatre’s Jefferson James Contemporary Dance Theater Series is ecstatic to present Ms. Bell and her diverse Company of dance artists for the first time in Cincinnati for one weekend only. Described as “hypnotically seductive” and “brilliant and impressive,” Bell’s aesthetic rings of “PinaBausch, fashion, and Harlem’s ballrooms” in a unique, visionary style that draws in audiences, deeply. Her distinctive, hyperkinetic movement and dramatic brilliance focus on the human psyche and questions of identity.

Sidra Bell is the first African American woman to have a work that she created performed by the New York City Ballet. Sidra Bell Dance New York will perform IN | REP, an evening of dance theater works that will leave you feeling and thinking for days to come.
