The life and work of Harriet Tubman, the anti-slavery activist who successfully escaped from slavery and later risked her own life to lead more than 300 slaves to freedom through the Underground Railroad. Through dance, music and drama the story both entertains and educates young and old audience members alike.

Riveting! A powerful program that moves and changes audiences!
There is a powerful difference between reading about slave auctions in books and seeing one physicalized before you. Desert Dance Theatre’s Sister Moses: The Story of Harriet Tubman expresses a painful and courageous history in just such an immediate way, and audiences have responded to its power.
