if you happen to read this before 5pm (maybe 4:30pm depending on where you live) today, sunday june 8, and you’ve got nothing to do, then come on down to times square for the third annual dancing at the crossrads.

this is an awesome event that i help put on as part of my job at dancers responding to AIDS. it is produced with the times square alliance - the people responsible for new year’s eve - and is basically a huge free dance blowout showcasing the diversity of dance in new york city at the ‘crossroads of the world’ - times square.

it’s at 5pm, and lasts about 2 hours. it takes place on military island, which is between 43rd and 44th streets in times square. you can’t miss it. it’s a giant stage in the middle of the street. and it’s FREE.

companies performing include : martha graham dance company, david dorfman dance, pilobolus, nai-ni chen dance company, buglisi dance theatre, and keigwin + company. also making a special guest appearance performing a number from their show : the cast of broadway’s crybaby.

so come on over to the square if you’re down for seeing some awesome free dance. but bring some cash to make a donation to our DRA bucket brigade!

thanks, and have a lovely sunday.
