2. OZ Arts Nashville Presents Fast/Forward: Nashville Artists Look To Our Future

In this lively evening of filmed performances, Nashville-based dancers, poets, musicians, and theatre-makers reflect on the revelations, revolutions, and resiliency of the day. The event features short-form works from 8 different projects, many from OZ past and present, that explore personal vulnerability, civic responsibility, and the sheer madness of the unexpected. Together, these inspiring artists share a vision of the world we hope to build together and spark the hope that will fuel us into the future.Performances and artists include:- Poet Ciona Rouse as emcee- A moving performance of the title song from the upcoming Steal Away, conceived and composed by Dave Ragland with choreography from Shabaz Ujima- A riveting, self-choreographed solo performance by dancer Becca Hoback- Special excerpts of the This Holding performance film, introduced by visual artist Jana Harper and choreographer Rebecca Steinberg- A powerful spoken word performance by local poets Cameron Mitchell and Jems Destine- A stripped-down, acoustic selection from ghoulish rockers Fable Cry- An emotionally stirring multimedia-music presentation by Gardening, Not Architecture- An original solo dance piece created by dancer Joi Ware
