Resurgence Dance Company’s “We Are Rebels” will premiere at the Chocolate Church Arts Center on Jan. 17 and 18 at 7 p.m. This full length, contemporary ballet features electronic beats, anime style costuming and takes place within a society that may be upsetting for young children.

“We Are Rebels” is an original contemporary ballet that promises to enthrall audience members. This is the tale of Fea, a young woman who decides to take a stand against an unjust government. Fea will dare to leave her job in The Palace, say goodbye to her sister, and risk everything to find a fulfilling path. The Queen has people looking out for her, and discovers Fea’s plans to join the Rebel Army. Sending a powerful assassin after Fea and her compatriots, The Queen continues on with her experimental human testing, knowing that the Rebels won’t be a problem for long.

This ballet introduces a cast of characters that includes a blissfully ignorant King, a naïve intern, and a mad scientist. Their stories are told through contemporary dance, electronic music and acting.
