The Woman at the Well: Dance Experience

Friday, June 25, 2025 @ 6PM

First Presbyterian Church of Newark, 820 Broad Street, Newark, NJ 07102

Witness the convergence of faith, artistry and transformation as DEW Ministries presents The Woman at the Well: Dance Experience — a revolutionary performance that reimagines biblical storytelling through the powerful medium of liturgical dance.

This isn’t merely a dance recital; it’s an immersive spiritual journey. Through the African American tradition of liturgical movement, performers weave together a tapestry of dance, music and narration that gives contemporary relevance to an ancient story.

The atmosphere is electric yet reverent. As bodies in motion interpret the story of a woman forever changed by a divine meeting, audience members find themselves transported. The production moves seamlessly between moments of solemn reflection and ecstatic celebration, mirroring the soul’s journey from isolation to community, from shame to acceptance.

The organization behind the production is DEW Ministries. Their diverse ensemble provides richness and varied perspectives to their artistic ministry and includes dancers connected to churches across the United States and Canada.

Whether you’re drawn by faith, fascinated by cultural dance traditions or simply appreciate powerful storytelling through movement, The Woman at the Well offers something profound. Come experience a performance where every gesture carries meaning and where ancient wisdom meets contemporary expression. This is sacred storytelling reimagined.
