Man's Playground

Funded by  Exploring the Metropolis Choreographer + Composer residency and Jamaica Center for Arts & Learning. 
Man's Playground looks to dissect the over sexualization of the black female form. The normalcy of the unauthorized visual consumption of the black female body is challenged as the audience is pushed to look beyond the physical and dive into the messages of the soul. ​

Music: Wild is the Wind | Nina Simone, Falling Leaves | Claire Maguire
Choreographer: Cyrah L. Ward
​Sound + Text: Cyrah Ward

Premiere: December 13, 2019 | Queens, New York ​
