July 2009: City Dance/Traveling Dance
About
Throughout July 2009, Miller Dance will present City Dance/Traveling Dance on the sidewalks of downtown Pittsburgh. The work, performed by five dancers and two musicians, takes away the barriers separating life and art by bringing modern dance into the everyday routine of a busy downtown sidewalk.
The piece will be performed five times during the month. For each performance, the dancers and musicians will take a different route.
Routes
All performances start from the Wood Street Gallery at 12 noon, and will take 30-40 minutes.
