*3:30 - 4:30 pm
Anna Halprin Automobile Event and Blank Placard Dance Reenactments
LOCATION: Meet at SoEx, performed outdoors in Mission District

We invite you to join us in performing these simple powerful pieces in the streets of San Francisco. These collective movements derive from San Francisco's own avant-garde history. The San Francisco Dancer’s Workshop and Anna Halprin originally performed versions of these two choreographies in 1968 and 1970.

About the choreography:
-AUTOMOBILE EVENT involves moving purposefully over a row of cars parked on the street.
-BLANK PLACARD DANCE is a simple choreography where the dancers move in a line carrying blank white protest placards.
Dancers are encouraged to wear a monochromatic outfit (originally this peice was performed in all white).

To participate call 415-863-2141, email programs [at] soex.org, or come to SoEx.
