Rennie Harris Puremovement

Rennie Harris, the preeminent ambassador of Hip-hop and Street dance culture, restages his classic work, Rome and Jewels, in honor of the 30th anniversary of his legendary company Rennie Harris Puremovement (RHPM). A Hip-hop retelling of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet  set in the streets of Philadelphia, Rome and Jewels  is a story of fear, love, violence, and triumph that can give us insights into many of the racial, religious, and economic questions we face.
