About the Event
An Ace Pictures and Irish Repertory Theatre Production As told by Mick Moloney & Lenwood Sloan. Directed by Susan Wittenberg Tracing the often overlooked 200-year history of exchange between Irish and African American cultures, TWO ROADS explores how dance and music became a shared language of resistance, survival, and joy. The film is deeply shaped by the work of folklorist and banjo rambler Mick Moloney and by creative catalyst, choreographer, and performer Lenwood Sloan. Their insight, scholarship, and artistry guide the film's exploration of a rich cultural dialogue between past and present. Featuring performances by artists including Kaitlyn Sardin, Jerron Paxton, Nora Brown, and Malian griot Cheick Hamala Diabate, and a post-event talk back with Director Susan Wittenberg, TWO ROADS unfolds as both a celebration and a tribute, affirming art's enduring power to connect across time, tradition, and shared experience.
