    Rennie Harris Puremovement, the world-renowned dance company founded by hip-hop ambassador Rennie Harris, presents the most intricate work of his choreographic career. In collaboration with French choreographers Gemini and Michel "Meech" Onomo, Harris has created a new work inspired by Stravinsky's masterpiece Rite of Spring, rethinking how shared cultural vocabularies in dance and music cross generations and cultural divides. Complete with fifteen dancers, Japanese motifs, and multimedia anime that includes an innovatively designed lighting installation and live music, Heaven reflects on the emergence and popularization of hip-hop dance. This event is part of the 2011 Philadelphia International Festival Of The Arts (PIFA).
