Cleo Parker Robinson Dance – We Have a Dream!
We Have a Dream! Join the dancers of Cleo II (the 2nd company of Cleo Parker Robinson Dance) as they present uplifting and inspiring works that celebrate the vision of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Even after 63 years, Dr. King’s words remind us of the dreams we share and the joy that brings us together.
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance (CPRD) is a cultural ambassador, infusing vitality, innovation and education into every community we touch—around the corner and around the globe. Every action we perform is done with the intent to transform ourselves and others; to give a voice to the voiceless; to leave a lasting legacy of excellence and understanding.
CPRD was founded in 1970, continuing to build upon its dance school and ensemble origins, they have developed into an internationally esteemed organization that operates beyond the traditional performing arts model. There are five pillars of the organization, namely, the CPRD Ensemble, Academy, Theatre, Education Programs and Art in Wellbeing. Working in concert, CPRD programs have created an oasis where a varied population—by gender, race, age and ethnicity—gather to study and appreciate a modern, cross-cultural approach to creative community development.
