The Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center will welcome Chosen Dance Company – Evvolution on Saturday, Feb. 19 at 7:30 PM.

Chosen Dance Company has been a part of hip-hop culture for more than 20 years, spreading a message of peace, love, and harmony through dance. This troupe of dedicated artists makes it a point to provide an environment that inspires the youth of America through the fundamentals of movement, without explicit content. With live music, invigorating choreography, and a message that sticks, Chosen Dance Company knows how to engage fans.

The Philadelphia-based dancers have created and performed numerous theater-long performances over the years. They are known for blurring the lines between historic hip-hop moves and more contemporary ones.

Every performance by the Chosen Dance Company caters to the youth of America but also includes pieces from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, making it the perfect family-friendly event. The Chosen Dance Company emphasizes the cultural significance of hip-hop as both an art form and a means of expression. Its goal is to validate hip-hop as an art form for everyone, regardless of ethnicity, age, or gender.

“Chosen Dance Company is near and dear to my heart; a whirlwind of great music, stunning choreography, and storytelling that will make you fall in love with hip-hop,” said April Evans, executive director for Uptown! “Chosen is renowned for its mesmerizing performances; I can’t wait to see what they bring to the stage at Uptown!”
