Raphael Xavier - Skiff presented by DANCECleveland and Tri-C Performing Arts

Challenging the idealistic concepts of maturity and hip-hop dance, Raphael Xavier returns to Cleveland with his newest creation, Skiff. The hour-long work features Xavier and guest artists, including some of Northeast Ohio’s own dancers, in a unique piece that blends contemporary dance with breaking in an exploration of the aging body, race, privilege, and power while encouraging conversations of identity, legacy and lineage.
