First come, first served. A celebration of the vibrant New York dance scene. New York choreographers and dancers will present their manifestos: statements of why they do, what they do, and how they do it. Contemporary dance in New York is experiencing a renaissance; new choreographers are forming their own companies and generating new producing strategies toward creation of new work and new forms for new times. Why? For what audience? And why should anyone care? Manifesto presentation participants include 600 Highwaymen, Luciana Achugar, Faye Driscol, Raja Feather Kelly, Paloma McGregor, Katy Pyle, Kate Watson-Wallace, Ni'Ja Whitson, Larissa Velez-Jackson, and André M. Zachery, followed by a discussion with choreographers. Co-curated by André M. Zachery/Renegade Performance Group, Thomas O. Kriegsmann/NYLA and ArKtype, and Antje Oegel. The Martin E. Segal Theatre Center is located at The Graduate Center CUNY. 365 Fifth Avenue at 34th Street, New York, NY 10016 For more about the Segal, please visit our web site, www.theSegalCenter.org
