  • Rufus King Park 171-150 Jamaica Avenue Jamaica, NY, 11432 United States (map)

Enjoy EMERGE125’s performance of I Want You at the 2026 Jamaica Dance Festival! Held annually in Rufus King Park, this dance festival is free and open to the public. Join us on Saturday, June 27th at 7:00 PM.

Saturday’s program also features performances by Lesar Stepputat and Cameron McKinney & Ballet Inc.

A deeply personal solo I Want You first captivated audiences as a work-in-progress in our 2024 season. This piece is an homage to vulnerability, strength, and the power of loving something—even if it does not love you back. It is about standing in that truth, harnessing it, and transforming it into a source of power and self-determination.
