2023 MISSION HILL ARTS FESTIVAL - EXCITING SUMMER EVENTS TO GATHER AND ENJOY ARTS AND CONVERSATIONS
-----------------
JALEN BUNCH, presents:
“Finding Joy: A Celebration in Dance”
Depicting exuberance through movement.
"Jalen Bunch is a talented, engaged, and innovative emerging artist who has chosen dance as his primary creative medium to influence his audience." – Luisa Harris
Bunch (They/Them) is a multi-disciplinary Black, queer, non-binary, artist from New York, currently studying to receive their B.F.A. in Musical Theatre from the Boston Conservatory at the Berklee School of Music.
They have been exploring the arts since age 10 in various community/regional theaters, and notable stages like Radio City Music Hall, opening for the Christmas Spectacular, and Carnegie Hall, singing alongside the rock band Foreigner. In 2020, they received a Certificate of Artistic Achievement from Dance Up!, a national platform for emerging teen choreographers for their work with the Trinity Dance Company. The award was given in recognition of the dance’s theme, development, composition, invention, and performance of their original work “The Giving Tree”. They are most known for their role as Lucas/Demogorgon in the original off-Broadway cast of Stranger Sings!, The Parody Musical. Most recently, they directed The Vagina Monologues with their dear friend, Eli Douglas, in collaboration with V (formerly Eve Ensler) and the V-Day Team, at the Boston Conservatory.
Bunch desire to be a modernizing artist brought him to partner with Instruments of Things, the pioneer creators of the SOMI-1, a wearable sensor that transforms movement into sound in real-time.
Bunch’s performance will unfold a unique and exceptional day of exuberance and dance like no other!
This event is co-hosted with Celebrity Series of Boston, Neighborhood Arts
