Company member Hope Boykin weaves a gentle, affecting tale of community, family and growth that illustrates the African proverb it takes a village to raise a child.
To a score composed and performed live by Sweet Honey In The Rock, Boykin casts the dancers and singers as members of a society who unite to move a young girl forward in wisdom and grace..

I saw this piece performed on the opening night of the 50th Anniversary tour in Los Angeles at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion. It was so breathtaking!
