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!

Butoh: Addressing The Discomfort

Caitlin Green

There’s drool, (and lots of it).

A maroon graphic says “Philadelphia Butoh Collective” in white bold font. Below the words there’s a black emblem with an image of a person sitting on the ground with one foot and their arms raised in the air. Red lettering overlays the image and also reads “Philadelphia Butoh Collective. To the right, lining the border, there are duplicate images of two people in motion. One is bent over from the waist with arms hanging to the ground, and the other stands with bent knees, hinging slightly backward with one arm outstretched and the other folded over their torso. To the far left border, vertical lettering reads “two new pieces” in black, bold font.
