Turn. Turning. TURNT.

Part of Next Wave 2026

Brooklyn Academy of Music

Nov 4 - 7, 2026

The rhythmic agility of Double Dutch jump roping. A flurry of vibrant action. Pulsing sound and considered movement. These are all facets of the program that marks Cynthia Oliver’s return to BAM. Turn. Turning. TURNT. is a three-part evening of dance comprising work constructed prior to, during, and following the 2020 global pandemic. Tether meditates on Black girls’ creativity and play as life strategy. Fallow depicts the chaotic underbelly of the pandemic through movement. Summon. Sow. Reap. explores our re-emergence from isolation through deep rhythm and spiritual patterning.
