Editor’s Note: Indiegogogo!

Lisa Kraus

Who knew that May was the season for fundraising? Just as June is all about weddings, May seems to be when the Philadelphia dance community asks you to come dance in a Marathon (at the Performance Garage) or at a hot Latin fest (Cinco de Miro) or to enjoy a Cabaret (Nichole Canuso). Other folks are raising money through crowd-sourcing for wonderful upcoming productions. We hope everyone meets their fundraising goals!

If thINKingDANCE is also asking for your contributions what sets us apart? It’s this – we are serving all of those organizations and companies and more.

What will our campaign fund? Pay for writers, editors, workshop leaders and workers on its Education scheme and Editorial Board along with some needed web upgrades.  In the simplest terms: we need to pay our people. Get the details and donate to our Indiegogo campaign here. Thank you!

room/in/nation tests our agency amidst family dysfunction/nation dysfunction.

three performers wearing plain white or black tanks/tees are mid gesture as if having a family argument. The performer in the front hunches their shoulders, crosses their arms, and has mouth open, perhaps in the middle of a sentence. Behind them, another performer looks to be yelling and pointing at the third performer, a hand on their shoulder, who has eyes closed, a soft smile, and holds their fingertips to the center of their chest.
