Black Boy Jungle is a contemporary dance work that focuses on the claiming (and re-claiming) of our unique identities. America is home to immigrants from all over the world, and our diversity encourages the questioning of both our personal and national identities. What is the American dream? Who's to say there is only one? Do our ethnic backgrounds, beliefs and theories become esoteric due to overarching societal views and our aesthetically-driven culture?
Black Boy Jungle addresses the issue of cultural misrepresentation and generalization, acquired through both public schooling and our consumer-driven society. We accumulate layer upon layer of judgements and opinions as we grow from toddlers to adults, but do the clothes on our back really represent who we are at our core? We're living in a vast jungle of different identities, often estranged from or ostracized by others, despite the fact that we're all seeking the same thing - harmony.
