If it's Autumn In NY it Must Be DanceNow

For Miss Wit the only real salvation for the "end" of the dog days of summer - is DanceNow/NYC.

Before ever attending  DanceNow's Festival (now in it's 15th Season!), Miss Wit thought dance was for everyone else.  For those high brow tutu lovin' toe tapping over cultured so and so's ( too harsh?). 

DanceNow has opened up a world of distinctive movement, where humor meets passionate craft, where languid legs meet peppery winks, where infinite dreams move you back and forward through warm fuzziness, awe and jaw dropping, leaps and bounds.  Heck, DanceNow has made MissWit the anti-snobbed snob's snob!

Today MissWit stands as a proud Media Sponsor!
It is with teary eyed pleasure to have witnessed the growth of this festival.  Why heck if only she coulda been at the first 8 years!  From the evolution of these magical producers of Fraulein Maria   @ Joes' Pub to this, their 15th Season! She can't say enough good things about it. 
  
Hey, what else could be better to do this week? Homework? Yeah, right!

Get dazzled - But don't believe MissWit believe the "real" critics:


"Whether you're a seasoned dance-goer or have never seen a dance performance, the DanceNOW Festival is the only way to experience the awesome scope of the NYC dance scene, including the brightest, hippest, smartest, sexiest and most stunning hip hop, theater, pointe, and contemporary dance companies in NYC today..."
