Celebrate Lula Washington’s 30th anniversary, her company’s Peak Performances debut and the world premiere of WWW.CONNECTIONS.2010. Washington’s newest work was inspired by the ever-challenging way people use socially networking the 21st century: Twitter, YouTube and Facebook to be sure! With Washington as its artistic voice, the Los Angeles – based company has a deserved reputation for vibrant, high-energy work reflecting African American culture and history.
“ Clearly inspirational” – The San Francisco Examiner
