Get Off the Couch for a Dance/Party
Local dance collective Live Animals hosts a “performance-infused social event” on Saturday, June 28, at Around the Coyote Gallery. The event, aptly called Dance/Party, will feature repertory work; sneak peeks of upcoming pieces choreographed by Live Animals members Kate Corby, Tess Dworman, and Caitin Marz; raffles; gummi bears; and—yep, you guessed it—one helluva a dance party. The night’s festivities will also include the Movebooth, a live take on the photo booth. (For participation in the Movebooth, bring an iPod.)
On the Live Animals blog, the three choreographers explain their motivation for throwing such a party: “One of our primary goals [as an organization] is to seduce you away from your couches and televisions…. We are fiercely committed to creating and maintaining breathing, moving, and feeling live human animals through events like this.”
For a very live, very moving experience, head to the ATC art space, located at 1935½ W. North Ave, at 8 pm on Saturday. General admission is $15 and includes refreshments. Student admission is $12 with a valid ID.
