La MaMa Presents La MaMa Kids Dance Event
LA MAMA KIDS - the Tony Award-winning theatre's popular performance and workshop series for youngsters and their parents - will present a one-day-only dance event, the LA MAMA MOVES! DANCE WORKSHOP on Saturday, May 18 at noon at La MaMa's Ellen Stewart Theatre (66 E. 4 St.) in NYC.
In this workshop - which coincides with La MaMa's annual renowned festival of new dance works entitled La MaMa Moves! - participants will learn the basics of dancing with a partner, and improvisation, along with good old-fashioned rolling around on the floor, easy-to-learn choreography and how to have fun interacting with others through movement.
LA MAMA MOVES! DANCE WORKSHOP is under the direction of Dan Safer, a teacher, choreographer and performer who is artistic director of Witness Relocation, an internationally-known dance/theatre company based in NYC.
Curated by Denise Greber, LA MAMA KIDS has been presenting shows and creative workshops for children for six years, programs that feature imaginative interactive productions, theatre crafts and hands-on learning.
Admission to LA MAMA MOVES! DANCE WORKSHOP is $10 per child (tickets free for adult chaperones). To purchase tickets, call OvationTix at 212 352 3101 or visit the theater's website at www.lamama.org.
