When I was a kid I got a little tipsy in a park with some friends & while we were walking home saw a street sign “ONE WAY.” I said “FUCK THAT: MANY WAYS!” and threw a rock at it.
That Don Drope is a weird fucking guy.
I know you weren’t going to, but don’t forget the show on Friday!

Hey!
So, we have good news and bad news about Friday’s show. Which do you want first? The bad news? Ok, due to some deaths in the family and intense car trouble, Xrin Arms is cancelling his tour and won’t make the show on Friday. But the good news is that David B. Applegate has graciously jumped onto the bill to fill in. So you are still assured 5 acts of wild beats and noises. Yes.

The outdoor Solar 1 performance stage is located at the northern edge of Stuyvesant Cove at E. 23rd and the East River, adjacent to its green energy arts & education center.
The Solar-Powered Dance Series will feature programs by choreographers from an eclectic mix of emerging dance companies that work in a variety of styles, ranging from circus to post-modern to urban contemporary. This juried selection features dance that is theatrical, energetic and suitable for all ages. The series is funded in part by the generous contributions of the Mertz Gilmore Foundation. This program is also supported, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts, a State Agency, and the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs.
Past participants have included Christopher Williams, Parul Shah and Christal Brown.

Over the past few seasons, Solar One has steadily worked to establish Stuyvesant Cove as a creative center for green performance in New York. With the Solar-Powered Dance Series, solar electricity generated onsite at the Solar 1 building powers the audio components of the programs. Our recycled stage, located at the water’s edge, provides the perfect setting for these early evening performances.
Solar One’s mission is to empower people of all ages with the vision, knowledge and resources to attain a more environmentally sound and sustainable future.
Ticket reservations are not necessary. For more information please contact Dina Elkan (646) 576-5664 or dina@solar1.org. More information is also available at www.solar1.org.
