Modern Dance For Garages
permanent rainbows … honey, someone’s dancing in our garage …
Speaking of space shaping movement…or not…as we often find ourselves doing, try this one on for size: three dancers (Brooklyn-SF) make dance for garages. And no, not car-parks, we’ve all seen performance in parking garages. Jbird Leary, Erin Sylvester and Biba Bell made their first piece in the one-car garage of Leary’s step-father.
Modern Garage Movement, Modern Dance for Garages comes to town tomorrow night, Friday June 30 at New American Art Union (922 SE Ankeny) at 8 PM. ($5)
This description of one of the promised pieces pleases us to no end: “MAYNARD is all about the permanent rainbow and the possibility of imagination. … The music, designed by Lani Rowe, is entirely based on the structure, meaning, and significance of ‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow,’ the song that almost didn’t make it into that famous movie.”
