Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC)
251 Fulton Street, New York, NY 10007
A dance-driven, jazz-fueled experience about dreams colliding with the realities of American life in the ‘40s & ‘50s.

Urban Bush Women, the groundbreaking dance company known for amplifying underrepresented voices and unheard stories of Black Women+, continues their 40th anniversary season with the NYC premiere of Scat!… The Complex Lives of Al & Dot, Dot & Al Zollar. Through song, dance and storytelling, Urban Bush Women tell the powerful love story of two people making their way through the Great Migration, inspired by founder Jawole Willa Jo Zollar’s childhood in Kansas City’s Black neighborhoods. With live music composed by Craig Harris and a cast of electrifying performers, Scat! pays tribute to the joyous resilience and rich legacy of Black floor shows.
