"Camille A. Brown & Dancers performance of
"Mr. TOL E. RAncE" had it all - heart, mind, soul, passion, full-out
dancing and introspective solos." - The Herald-Sun
Two-time Princess Grace Award recipient, Camille A. Brown, a
prolific choreographer who has achieved multiple accolades and awards for her
daring works brings an evening-length dance theater work that celebrates
African-American humor, examines "the mask" of survival and the
"double consciousness" of the black performer throughout history and
the stereotypical roles dominating current popular Black culture. Through
comedy, animation, theater, soul-stirring live music and poignantly
retrospective dance vocabulary, Mr. TOL E. RAncE speaks to the issue of
tolerance- how much Black performers had to tolerate, and addresses forms of
modern day minstrelsy we tolerate today.
