It’s time for a Dance Break! On Wednesday, September 17, RAWdance activates San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Lane with an endorphin-filled community dance party, performances by some of the Bay’s most innovative contemporary dance-makers, and a much needed jolt of positivity. The four-hour lunchtime event kicks off with joy-stirring, free performances by RAWdance and three local dance powerhouses, Una Productions (directed by drag artist Fuchsia), Karla Quintero, and seymour::dancecollective (directed by Chafin Seymour).
Following the approximately 50-minute performance will be a family-friendly DJ’ed dance party led by LA FEMME PAPI, the DJ known for the beats behind the celebrated drag cabaret Clutch the Pearls as well as queer nights and events throughout San Francisco and Oakland. Their sets will transform the floor into a space for celebration. At 2pm the cycle repeats, so there will be two opportunities throughout the afternoon to see the performance and join in the dance party action.
The one-day event is free and open to the public and will have ASL Interpretation. Limited seating will be provided. Yerba Buena Lane is an accessible public space and is close to public transportation and multiple garages.
Dance Break is supported by Yerba Buena Partnership, Mayor Daniel Lurie, and San Francisco Office of Economic and Workforce Development.
