Presented in Partnership with Arte Noir. This program is supported by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture.
Co-created by Dahlak Brathwaite (writer/composer), Roberta Uno (director), and Toran Moore, Try/Step/Trip is a concept musical rooted in hip-hop and embodied through the choreographic language of step.
The story follows the journey of a music man as he reimagines his experience in a court-ordered drug rehabilitation program. Inspired by Brathwaite’s own history, Try/Step/Trip is a rite of passage orchestrated to save one of the justice system’s newest inductees from the ultimate plight of criminalization: to be remade in the image of its judgment.
Worldviews are delivered within musical numbers, ancestors are conjured through step, and archetypes are sampled from pop culture and folklore, all to guide a familiar young Black man in his unique search for redemption and self-definition.
