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!

Afrofusion, Bempa’s Way

“Untitled” explodes with queer black joy as Bempa gives the audience his own version of a good time.

A black and white bust shot of Bempa looking forwards with a serene and powerful expression. He is black and wears his hair short cut in a fade. His chest juts out forwards proudly in his collared cross hatched shirt.

Tango – I Think About It All the Time

Rachel DeForrest Repinz

Tango Therapy Project offers community, connection, and joy.

A group of dancers wearing various multi-colored shirts sit in chairs arranged in a circle in the center of a church meeting room. They are surrounded by intricate stained glass windows, warm wooden flooring, and off-white painted walls. As they sit, they raise their arms above their heads and smile at one another.
