The Playground: An Open Workshop Series for Professional Dancers February 28, 2011

Manhattan Movement & Arts Center presents The Playground, a workshop series for professional dancers from Monday, February 28, 2011 through Friday, March 25, 2011 at the Manhattan Movement & Arts Center at 248 W. 60th Street, NYC (between Amsterdam and West End Avenues) in the Lincoln Center area. The workshop will be held every weekday from 1-3pm. The entry fee is $5, payable at the door in cash only.

Conceived by Gregory Dolbashian and Loni Landon, The Playground is an open forum for professional dancers to participate in the processes of New York City's most exciting up-and-coming choreographers. This open-door workshop series builds a community of movement and artistic exchange in a non-competitive and highly motivated dance environment. The program functions strictly on a donation-based entry fee for participants, allowing dancers to freely experience each choreographer’s methods and ideas while the choreographers showcase their brands of movement and concepts, all without financial strains.

The Playground is sponsored by Home4Dance, the premier online network dedicated exclusively to dance.
