Urbanity Dance is a Boston-based contemporary dance company that celebrates its sixth anniversary in May 2014. Urbanity’s more than thirty company dancers come from strong technical backgrounds in dance, and use formal training in performances that aim to push boundaries and affect change. Community workshops and open classes celebrate accessibility to the arts, and performances are often a product of cross-disciplinary collaboration with other local musicians, fashion designers, even architects. Just five years old, Urbanity has been recognized as Boston’s strongest contemporary jazz/modern company to date and has engaged substantially both with its South End community as well as underserved populations throughout the Boston area.
