NOV 13 & 14 🙌 Jean Appolon Expressions presents “Pouvwa” at Takeda Theater at The Platform Kendall in Kendall Square 
Boston-based dance organization Jean Appolon Expressions performs the world premiere of “Pouvwa” (Power)—an immersive evening of interconnectedness shaped through Haitian-folkloric dance, Afro-electronica, live drumming and visual installations. “Pouvwa” invites audiences to reflect on the misuse of power, and how we might wield it to imagine a world that benefits us all.

The presentation of “Pouvwa” by Jean Appolon Expressions was made possible by the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Foundation and the Mellon Foundation. Sponsored in part by LEAD3R.
