Dani Tirrell embodies incredible artistry with his exemplary work. The upcoming show at the Moore Theatre is a masterpiece featuring dynamic choreographies, physical expressions, and the free movement of bodies. Leviticus or Love and to Walk Amongst Humans: A Dance in Two Parts (nook 1: Leviticus) is both a meditation and movement practice. The performances will be accompanied by reimagined gospel music. Tirrell’s movement practices have inspired and engaged dancers from all over the country, specifically Seattle, Detroit, and many other cities. Over the years, he has continued his advocacy and spread his exemplary work that spread awareness of various issues.
Some of Tirrell’s most notable works include Black Bois, which has been referred to as a “ceremony to ancestors” and “a thanksgiving to our past, present, and future.” Tirrell created Black Bois as a love letter to bodies, spirits, and minds. This exemplary work provides a healing space, a chance to progress, and the opportunity to love. Another notable work is FagGod. The work explores the sanctuaries of the LGBTQIA+ community. With the onset of HIV/Aids, FagGod highlights places like discos/bars, bathhouses, and churches – where many have found their relationship with God.
In 2019, Dani Tirrell’s work received a fantastic accolade. He was given the Seattle’s Mayor Arts Award. That same year, he also received the Artist Trust Fellowship Award and a Dance Crush Award for his Black Bois performance. Being black, queer, a choreographer, dancer, and movement guide, Tirrell is a trailblazer in the movement meditation world. And he will continue to inspire, teach, and bring people together through his incredible work. Tirrell has continuously sold out his shows in Seattle. And, likely, his upcoming performance at the Moore Theatre on Saturday, 20th April 2024, will also be fully packed. Moore Theatre can accommodate up to 1,800 guests per event, and the show’s spectators can look forward to a fantastic entertainment experience thanks to the venue’s state-of-the-art sound and light technology, impressive architecture, and well-rounded facilities.
