Bread and Puppet presents: The Lubberland National Dance Company
Bread and Puppet presents: The Lubberland National Dance Company
The LNDC was formed 10 years ago with the help of local volunteers as an urgent dance revolt against unbearable news of circumstance and is the revival of the "Gruppe Fuer Neuen Tanz" which Peter Schumann founded 60 years ago in Munich, Germany.
The dances are created from simple instruction, either as a result of a short workshop or directly as public participation dances. They range from traditional truth-relationship to public opinion making dances, and from collateral damage to warmonger defiance dancing.
The current unbearable news: Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper has announced a major escalation of Canadas role in the new US-led war in the Middle East.
We call to arms! And legs! We call all citizenry to utilize your finger pointing dance skills; we need wobbly knees to move the hunched-over populace; We want big voices and little voices to accompany defiant shoulders; We need bartenders and bakers and brick-layers to shake toes against the war-for-oil-market-stability at hand.
Suggested Donation $10 - no one turned away!
We will rehearse 11 am - 2pm and perform at 3pm that same day. Wear clothing that you are comfortable moving in. For the performance we will wear our 'normal' clothes however, no logos! Spread the word, all are welcome to become a Lubberland dancer!
