Thursday, Feb. 18th – Performancy Forum at Panoply Performance Laboratory (PPL), 8 pm, 104 Meserole St, Brooklyn, New York 11206. Performancy Forum is a special performance series that encourages new experimental performance and well as audience dialogue. (HINT: Curators this is where you go if you don’t know how to find new performance artists, but what to add performance to your programming.) This Performancy Forum has an extra sweet line-up. Featured artists are:
