Take a Good Look / Meet Me in the Moon  

Wednesday, January 10, at 8pm, and Thursday, January 11, at 7pm

The LGBT Community Center, Theatre 301 

Vogue artist and Pose star Jason Anthony Rodriguez’s work Take a Good Luck takes a direct look into one’s queerness through the perspective of a Dominican, dancer, actor, Gaymer. The work looks closely at the layers that make us, build us, and rip us apart, exploring tools that allow us to regroup in a healthy manner. Meet Me in the Moon is a piece set by choreographer/teacher Kevin Wynn on the Joffrey Ballet School Summer Intensive in 2013. It will be reset as a solo for these performances.
