So Help Me, God Rupa Kingston Choreography
In this indepth analysis and exposé of American political culture, So Help Me, God attempts to answer a vital question: what does it mean to take an oath Through creative contemporary choreography, The Kingston Company comments on the dangers of putting political institutions and people on a godly pedestal by examining the lies and deceit that emerges from corrupt systems of power. With references to the immortal Johnny Cashs own work and life, and to symbolic figures such as Lady Justice, this piece aims to emphasize the importance of critical thinking, accountability, and protest when political figures are continually deceitful, and serve their own interests rather than their nations.
