The "Black Black Black" Week

Beyond the Black Box X Triskelion Arts Presents The "Black Black Black" Week! @daddystrata_

BBB is proud to present: The “Black Black Black” Week, a four night gathering of dancers, choreographers, and multidisciplinary artists. With a handpicked curation by the BBB team you are guaranteed to have a Black A** night.

Doors open at 6pm for you to experience: an active photo booth, dominoes and card games, self-made jewelry, shea butter whipping, curated cocktails, soul food, and our signature community mural. 

At 7:30 we commence our performances with a guided breathwork ceremony led with an African Drummer. On September 20 & 21 you will see performances by duendita (@duendita), Dorchel&Hakeem (@dorchelhaqq, @hak.olayinka), and Jada Jenai (@jadajenai) choreographed by Claude CJ Johnson (cj4400). On September 22 & 23 you will see Kashia Kancey (@kashiakancey), Lamb (@biglillamb), and Ashley Pierre-Louis (@ashleypierrelouis). 

The BBB Team will close out every evening with an original work. 

DRESS CODE: BLAXPLOITATION.

Come dressed in your best interpretation of the 1970, Pam Grier, bad a** aesthetic! We are setting the scene and we want YOU to starr in it! 

Immerse yourself in the BLACK EXCELLENCE that is OUR community!

We are striving to connect with our community on a deeper level and embody the unity witnessed by the Black Power movement in the 70s. By creating an environment rooted in support, love, and safety— we want to acknowledge that while we are all individuals, we are all deeply connected. We Are One. 

Welcome to the Beyond the Black Box family!
