Tomorrow!

Please join us!

A Group Motion Community Performance Project

STATES OF AFFAIRS WITH CHAIRS

A remarkable, extraordinary, intergenerational group (40 to 88) of dancers/movers and musicians.

And a story from another time of war.

In a surrealistic mix of reality and bizarre disposition -

Disharmony aiming for harmony

Unification as symbol for utopia.

Show Time: 12 to 1pm. After party 1:30 to 2:30pm

Seating is limited. 🪑 by @groupmotion

The Group Motion Workshop is a resource for creative and authentic expression through dance, music and movement. It offers a space for expression and communication which is spontaneous, deep, and direct, allowing for new channels of creative potential to open. It celebrates the language of movement as a language that anyone can speak and understand. It creates a ritual space for building and celebrating community. #movement #somatic #groupmotion #philadelphiadance by @groupmotion
