As part of The Ringling’s commitment to spotlight Florida artists, we are excited to present the premiere of Florida Woman. The work is an evening length dance theater experience created by choreographers Leah Verier Dunn (Sarasota) and Rosie Herrera (Miami) that employs the absurd "Florida Man'' internet meme as the lens to examine the stereotypes and myths of Floridian life. Juxtaposing the perceived lawlessness and freedom that historically defined this internet phenomenon with the prevalence of restrictive laws on women's bodies, this work celebrates and interrogates the aesthetic beauty of Florida and its history as a bastion for all things wild and hopeful.
