Sundays on Broadway co-curators Malcolm-x Betts and Cathy Weis present an evening of performances by Deborah Hay, Tess Dworman and Arien Wilkerson.

Hay will perform a solo entitled I am dancing.

Dworman will perform an excerpt from Everything Must Go, an improvisational dance/theater work that emerges from satirical questioning into the consumption of experimental performance. The full work will be presented at the Chocolate Factory Theater in December 2024.

Wilkerson will present CHARITY STARTS AT HOME/Nadine Ruff, a work that he describes as “A reminder to remain dangerous as an artist. And to take care of yourself.”

Artists' bios:

Tess Dworman is a Brooklyn-based choreographer, performer, and audio describer. In New York, her work has been presented by many institutions including Abrons Art Center, the Chocolate Factory Theater, and Pageant. She performed and toured extensively in the work of Tere O’Connor and Juliana F. May. In 2020, Dworman was honored as an “Outstanding Breakout Choreographer” by the Bessies New York Dance & Performance Awards.

Deborah Hay was born in Brooklyn then moved to New York City and then Vermont. She currently lives in Austin, TX, and says that she has “manufactured the means to continue dancing ever since Brooklyn.”

Arien Wilkerson/TNMOT AZTRO, an awarding-production company based in Philadelphia, believes that art and its complexities derive from the alienation of objects, identities, the body, sounds, and humans, among many things. Featuring six to ten artists at any given time the artistic practice in making performance, sculpture, experimental film, photography and dance is rooted in repurposing or redefining meanings of “fine art” and its attachments to colonialism, white supremacy, and institutionalized racism. Arien Wilkerson/Tnmot Aztro has hosted sold-out performances, online lectures, and events at various art galleries, institutions, and incubator spaces.
