Feb 15, 2025 at Glorya Kaufman Dance Theater (UCLA): Shamel Pitts and TRIBE's 'BLACK HOLE'
Trailer by Itai Zwecker
'BLACK HOLE - Trilogy And Triathlon' is the final part of Shamel Pitts' BLACK Series triptych, brought to life by the Brooklyn-based arts collective TRIBE. This multidisciplinary performance, enriched by Afrofuturism, weaves together dance, sound, video, and light into a narrative celebrating vitality, tenderness, and the power of unity and progress. Through the journey of three performers of African heritage, BLACK HOLE explores themes of transformation and potential, transcending the darkness into a metaphorical space of empowerment.
This uninterrupted hour-long performance highlights resilience and elegance, set against a backdrop of captivating visual and audio elements, including original music and spoken word. Conceived by 2024 Doris Duke Artist Award recipient and Guggenheim Fellow Shamel Pitts, who also performs, alongside dancers Tushrik Fredericks and Marcela Lewis, this work features contributions from a talented creative team. BLACK HOLE is not just a performance but a culmination of Pitts' exploration of identity, community, and artistic evolution, marking the birth of TRIBE as both a collective and a movement towards cultivating a unique space through shared Afrofuturistic visions.

Watched this “Broken Branches” concert in Hong Kong. I was so moved by the guitar and vocal the entire evening. Enjoyed every moment of it!! ❤
Looks like this was recorded right before the world shut down. I'm so glad I found this today.

That is sure how I feel when I leave a Sweet Honey show, Bless your hearts. THANK YOU!
huh? ? composing for and playing a violin, which is a western european instrument, while proclaiming it is critical to represent the asian-american experience? the Asian instrument is the koto, erhu, etc. the American instrument is the electric guitar. Neither are a violin. 🤷♀🤦♀
