Event Details

The San Francisco Bay Area, a major player in global urbanism, is in the midst of an explosion of interest in the music culture known as HOUSE.
On December 17, three local choreographers grab hold of their influences to offer wildly unique perspectives on this rhythmic phenomenon.

Jocquese (aka: JoQ)
Pose. SYMMETRIC. Pose. GEOMETRIC. Pose. DRAMATIC…
JoQ teams up with DJ ANDRE to mix the lyrical with the sharp + the
energetic with the fluid, creating dance theater of harmonious
abstraction with Vogue as its foundation.

Lauren (aka: Lauren b.)
New York. SAN FRANCISCO. Detroit. SAN JOSE. Chicago. OAKLAND…
LAUREN B. partners with DJ TAGNIA to call upon the dual goal of practice + performance, re-interpreting the African aesthetic of call + response for the globally-modern House audience.

Rashad (aka: Soul Nubian)
Who? DANCER as DJ. When? PAST as FUTURE. Why? RITES as RIGHTS…
SOUL NUBIAN collaborates with DJ DAMON BELL to investigate the rituals of underground dance + Pan-African performance, presenting an eclectic homage to the history + culture of Afro/Electro/House dance & music.


The evening ends with a discussion/reception to facilitate direct artist/audience exchange.


6pm doors. 6:30 performance.
