Dapline! is an evening-length choreographic work with 6-8 male performers stemming from the collaboration between André M. Zachery and visual artist LaMont Hamilton. This project looks at the origins and continued practice of “the DAP” or dapping; the intricate handshakes that serve as greetings usually between Black men in the United States. This performance seeks to be a public engagement opportunity over the ever-relevant issue of Black existence in the United States relating to masculinity and image.
