EMERGE125, under the visionary leadership of Artistic Director Tiffany Rea-Fisher, presents an evening of dynamic and emotionally charged dance that delves into the complexities of human experience. From the raw vulnerability of stepping into the spotlight in Pre-Show Jitters to the relentless pursuit of resilience in For Joy, each piece offers a unique perspective on movement, connection, and transformation. Audiences will witness the evolution of past works, such as 1:3:4:1, the premiere of bold new creations, and the physical artistry that defines E125’s signature style. Whether through the intimate power of I Want You, the collective strength of To the Root, or the exhilarating Heart of Glass, this program is a testament to the company’s ability to push boundaries while honoring the essence of dance as a form of expression, resistance, and joy.

ABOUT EMERGE125
EMERGE125 is a Black female-led dance company that expands the reach and impact of dance through creation, performance, and education. Through a body of expressive, athletic modern dance work, EMERGE125 explores social dynamics and personal identity, illuminates and challenges systemic inequities, and inspires reflection and connection. We believe that dance can serve as a uniting force across differences in age, race, class, and more.
EMERGE125 has been led by celebrated choreographer Tiffany Rea-Fisher since 2017. Based in Harlem, EMERGE125 also has a strong presence in the Adirondacks, tours nationwide, and shares virtual content globally.
By performing in multidisciplinary or non-arts spaces, as well as engaging in cross-disciplinary collaborations, we reach beyond traditional dance audiences—we attract audiences who like to be surprised, challenged, and in dialogue with art of all kinds. Our youth dance education programs—serving K-12 students as well as pre- and early-career professionals—cultivate these same values in the artists and audiences of the future.
