The tour features Words, a new work by Mark Morris and cross-cultural community and educational programming through Access/MMDG and the U.S. State Department’s DanceMotion USA program.

MMDG West tours the U.S., Scotland, Italy, and Switzerland.
MMDG East tours Cambodia, Timor-Leste, and Taiwan.

East and West reunite mid-November in Shenzhen and Beijing, China.
