On his return to Brooklyn, Wilson’s POWER, developed at Jacob’s Pillow and the neighboring Hancock Shaker Village, “…brings alive the mutual Black-Shaker influence by channeling the refusal of Anglo-Judeo-Christian limitations on the body into utopian energy that manifests through whirling, stamping, and singing. [And for this] propulsive, rhythmic experience connecting American Black and Shaker traditions, Wilson explores the body as a radical tool for illuminating the internal and communal…drawing inspiration from Mother Rebecca Cox Jackson, a free Black woman who became a Shaker eldress and formed her own community in Philadelphia—as well as the Shakers’ complex relationship to free and enslaved African-Americans,” according to the release.  POWER coincides with BAM’s annual commemoration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Find out more here
