One of the best and most frustrating things about living in New York is that the realm of cool stuff to do and see is so much wider than the realm of what can be done. Even for dance. This Friday is coming at me like a speeding train, and I am indecisive in the face of so many options! Competing for my attention (and yours?) are:
Food For Thought at St Marks Church
Danspace’s food drive series, just in time for Thanksgiving, is just $5 with two cans of food (or $10 without). On Friday, the passionate and multi-talented Maura Donohue curates. I am not familiar with all of the artists, but I’ve been curious to get another look at Monstah Black since his studio showing at DTW.
60×60 Dance at the World Financial Center Winter Garden
One-minute dances by 60 choreographers. The Urgent Artist tipped me off about this series here (scroll down). It sounds refreshing.
I know that’s a mouthful, and visiting those links may or may not illuminate what it is that is actually going on. I just know that I saw Endlicher’s last show (reviewed here in the Rail) and I want to catch as much as I can before she jets out of New York and off to Japan for her next installation. The New School performance starts at 6:00 PM.
