Citizen is a physically demanding ensemble piece performed by the full company of Houston Contemporary Dance Company. Its dynamic and expressive movement, together with dramatic original musical scoring, reflects the intensity of the times we were living then and now, the challenges we face together and the political environment that surrounds and influences us. The dancers and their movements celebrate our common sense of hope and determination.
