Complexions Contemporary Ballet

A “matchless American dance company”

For Crying Out Loud
Choreography by Dwight Rhoden
Music by U2

Hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer, Complexions Contemporary Ballet transcends dance tradition through a groundbreaking approach to the art. Founded in 1994 by master choreographer Dwight Rhoden and the legendary Desmond Richardson, Complexions’ foremost innovation is to remove boundaries, not reinforce them. The company blends methods, styles, and cultures from across the globe, and the result is a continually evolving form of dance that reflects the movement of our world—and all its cultures—as an interrelated whole.

In the 30 years since its inception, the company has witnessed a world becoming more fluid, more changeable and more culturally interconnected than ever. Today, Complexions Contemporary Ballet represents one of the most recognized and respected performing arts brands worldwide.

“They’re forging a path for what ballet can be instead of what it historically has been.”
