Ronald K. Brown/EVIDENCE would like to dedicate their 2024 ADF performance to Stephanie Reinhart, Baba Chuck Davis, Martha Myers, and Dr. Sherrill Berryman Johnson.

Founded by Ronald K. Brown in 1985 and based in Brooklyn, New York, EVIDENCE, A Dance Company, integrates African dance with contemporary choreography, music, and spoken word. Through its work, the company provides a unique view of human struggles, tragedies, and triumphs. Brown uses movement as a way to reinforce the importance of community in African-American culture and to acquaint audiences with the beauty of African dance forms and rhythms. EVIDENCE tours to 30 communities in the United States annually and has traveled to Cuba, Brazil, England, France, Greece, Hungary, Hawaii, Ireland, Holland, Mexico, Columbia, South Africa, Nigeria, Senegal, and the United Kingdom to perform and teach. EVIDENCE is a dance company in demand, not only for the work presented on stage, but also for the company's dance workshops, community classes, and master classes provided for dancers of all ages and levels of dance experience. Annually, the company reaches an audience of more than 30,000. EVIDENCE works in partnership with the Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation, The Billie Holiday Theatre, and The Joyce Theater. 

EVIDENCE would like to thank the administrative and technical staff of Reynolds Industries Theater for their hard work and support.
