In 2013 DJD premiered a highly acclaimed piece about the wild short life of Charles Mingus—a virtuoso bass player, accomplished pianist, bandleader, and composer. Known as the ‘Angry Man of Jazz’ Mingus was a brilliant, mercurial, and bodacious character. Back by popular demand, Better Get Hit in Your Soul gives audiences an ear and eye into the music of one of the most important figures in 20th-century American music. Join us as we explore his music and some of the lighter and darker sides of his dramatic life.
Two households… This is dance, this is theatre, this is a jazz concert. This is Shakespeare’s tale of love and violence re-imagined, re-visited, re-loved hyper-realized, sampled, questioned recognizable but twisted, current and classic, gritty and glorious. Passion, pheromones, pick-up lines, I want you I need you I love you These violent delights have violent ends.

Regardless of the feel or theme of a particular show, at the heart of DJD’s dance is an authentic respect for and connection to jazz music, especially live music which has led many to describe our dance as “music for the eyes.”
