Fall Dance Season is Here!
September 8, 2008
The file on my computer called “Summer Dance Dates” has now been re-titled “Fall Dance Dates”, as there seems to be a sudden rush of performances and events filling up my calendar – spanning from now to December. It’s exciting to think about how much is going on in NYC this fall, but a bit overwhelming as I try to cram in as many performances as possible. Here’s a working list of what I plan on seeing. Many of the websites include video clips and photos, so be sure to click on the links. Even though I probably can’t fit much more in, please comment if you’d like to share information on other performances!
Fall For Dance Festival at City Center, September 17-27. Tickets are still available for many performances!
VIA Dance Collaborative‘s Dream Project/Lullaby in Surrealism, September 25-27 at the Ailey Citigroup Theater. I recently blogged about it here, and don’t forget to take VIA’s dream survey!
