Finding San Jose
Continued collaboration with Cellista
May 18-20, 2017
In late summer 2016, Lauren Baines Dance/Theatre collaborated with the wonderful Bay Area artist Cellista (Freya Seeburger) to create choreography for and perform in a music video for Cellista's solo album Finding San Jose.
The collaboration continues with several live performances in Japantown (San Jose) on May 18-20, 2017.

Permanent Gestures revisited
Ongoing 2017
We are currently revisiting a solo series first developed by Artistic Director Lauren Baines in 2013 while in residency at the Milkbar Project Space in Oakland and performed in downtown San Jose as part of the SubZERO Festival. We are expanding and transforming the live "dance painting" series into a group performance with new media elements.
