Before the Practica: Tango Intervention on Saturday April 11

Robert Lawrence stopped by last week's practica to invite everyone to this FREE one-time event. In case you missed him, here are the details .....

TIME: Noon till 2:00pm, Saturday April 11

LOCATION: Sylvan Theatre, on the Mall just Southeast of the Washington Monument. Participants will dance on the large wooden stage with a dramatic view of the Monument.

WHAT: An outdoor milonga as performance art piece. See the artist's statement, info about past Tango Interventions on the Brooklyn Bridge and in Vienna, and more from Robert's website at http://www.tangointervention.org/about.htm

DRESS: All BLACK is required! This is, after all, a "social sculpture" and participants need to present a unified appearance. Anything black is fine .... shorts and slippers are fine ... it just has to be BLACK!

RSVP: Because of National Park Service regulations there may be limits to the number of participants, so please register by email for the event ASAP to insure a space (and help with gender balance): tangointervention@gmail.com

See you there ... and later that afternoon at the Library!
