Jacob's Pillow Dance

August 9, 2011 - (Becket, MA) David Dorfman and his company of skilled dancers bring their newest work, the dynamic Prophets of Funk, to the Doris Duke Theatre, August 17-21. Inspired by the vitality and revelry of the 1970s, this lively engagement is driven by the popular funk music of Sly and the Family Stone. Set in the spirit of Sly's music and philosophy, the work centers around the music's themes of love and celebrations, along with the struggles and hopes that reside in the lives of everyday people. Delivered with humor and heart by Dorfman's cast of phenomenal dancers, Prophets of Funk "[keeps] Dorfman fans salivating for more" (Eileen Elizabeth, iDANZ Critix Corner).
