Blast from the Past!

February 2014 saw Spectrum Dance Theater's revamp of Donald Byrd's Bessie Award-winning work, The Minstrel Show. The work's no-holds-barred look at race in America is as relevant today as it has ever been, so head into SeattleDances' archives for our preview and review of the show to get a conversation started.
