I saw yesterday's performance, and it was terrific! The audience met the director on Jersey Avenue, and were 'escorted' to the stage - which as the concrete slab of a now demolished structure, where the "seats" were overturned construction buckets and cinderblocks, really felt, smelled, sounded like an industrial wasteland! A few kids had turned it into an inpromptu skate park.

The dancers performed mostly in silence, and the piece was almost magical, or ritualistic, in its simplicity - I may not have gotten the angle about gentrification, but I found myself thinking these were woodland nymphs surveying our desecration of the natural landscape, and trying and failing fix it. Everyone - and it was a pretty big, diverse audience, kids too - seemed to really enjoy it (well, except for someone's dog, who started growling at the end, I guess I was not the only one sensing righteously angry woodland spirits...) I would recommend seeing it if they do it again.

Here's a report of a experimental dance performance that took place yesterday in the JC hinterlands. Well, not exactly hinterlands, but you've probably never actually been there, though you may have passed it on the light rail: http://new-savanna.blogspot.com/2012/ ... stigation-shua-group.html There's another performance today Sunday 14 October, starting at 1PM. Meet at Jersey Ave & Aetna St., where there's parking. You'll be led to the performance.

Conceived and choreographed by Laura Quattrocchi in collaboration with Joshua Bisset. Sculpture by Laura Quattrocchi with Milosz Koziej and the County Prep Artist Collective. Performance by Danica Holoviak, Myssi Robinson, Meagan Woods, Molly Galbraith, Heather Warfel, and Laura Quattrocchi.
