Join thINKingDANCE for a series of exciting in  person events around Philadelphia this spring!   First,   thINKingDANCE is partnering with Philadelphia Dance Projects  to offer Write Back Atcha after upcoming performances. Then, don’t  miss our first ever drINKingDANCE, an opportunity to meet  tD writers and readers in a fun, happy hour setting. Read on for more information!

Write Back Atcha is a post-show talk-back and mini-writing workshop led by tD writers. Before the performance, audience members are given a few prompts to shape their viewing of the piece. Afterwards, they are guided through an exploration of language in response to the performance. Audience members    will have an opportunity to see their words published in a crowd-sourced review on our website. To join, stick around after the show.

The Assurance of the Ecstatic: On Anh Vo’s Three Performances

Mang Su

Being possessed is not a state but a devotion.

A performance of Anh Vo: Possessed by… at The Rail Park. The work takes the form of a devotional dance to the spirits, continuing a performance Vo previously staged on June 14, 2025, in front of the Apple Store in Downtown Brooklyn. There, the artist worshipped the temple of capitalism, drawing out the religiosity embedded in the store's architecture. In this iteration, Vo applies a similar logic: animating the site through repetitive, abstract movement to explore how architecture can embody systems of belief.
