Hey, does anyone want to go to this event tomorrow night, Sat. 8pm, in Oakland? It looks great and I have a friend dancing in it...





Tickets are available online for $10-22.

there's a review of the company and the show in the NY Times: A Dance Company Mixes Arms, Legs and Wheels.

The lap of a seated dancer is a body part, as exploitable as a shoulder. Or that? A chair on its side, a wheel spinning in the air with a dancer lying across it, rotating slowly and elegantly, a lovely movement impossible without the chair. Or that? As dancers pair off, the partners aren’t simply men or women. Two chaired dancers in a pas de deux, or one in a chair and one on her feet: as if a whole new gender had emerged, these are unfamiliar kinds of flirtation but flirtation absolutely.
