Attn you movers, shakers, improv dance makers!

 
POSTPONED DUE TO HURRICANE- email me if you want the new dates/times when we get them figured out

Would you like the chance to dance this Sunday Aug28? Ellina Graypel, Russian rock goddess wants you to dance at her rock show at Sullivan Hall.

The idea is for the last song in her set the audience to suddenly become a swell of dancers contact improving or dancing just however they feel like in a huge, grand finale. The show is free so even if you are uncertain whether you want to dance- or if you want to bring friends!- just come on out and hopefully you'll feel the inspiration to move. I want to make this as much fun as possible- just a big ole improv dance jam, the likes of which we have been to but the average rock concert-going crowd probably hasn't seen before. Plus, you can put on your resume that you danced at Sullivan Hall and I will completely back you up on that one.

She is the last performer of the evening and will probably get on stage around 10pm. Sullivan Hall is conveniently located near Washington Square Park at 214 Sullivan St. I've also been told there will be cable TV people there shooting a segment on the band and the concert so you could be FAMOUS (on cable tv)

For all the details- if you want to dance with us, are curious to learn more, might drop by on your way to more adventures that night- please email Gorgas: gorgasgorgas@gmail.com

It'll be legen- wait for it!- dary.
