The Genesis Concept & Dance Ministries

The Genesis Concept is a major work choreographed by Dr. Joyce Harrigan over a 10 year period. The specific musical genre: gospel music, combined with her style, forms a total movement and sound experience.

GENESIS - that exhibits the feeling that radiates from the core of our spirit.

GENESIS - is a collage of sacred works, depicting life's unavailable milestone. It touches the hearts of mixed audiences in various theatrical settings: churchs, the community & theatres.

GENESIS - Focus is to reach our constituents everywhere. This celebration transcends the body of work into movements. It explores the gospel, faith, love and spiritual relationships and creates inspired works.
