WEDNESDAY JUNE 25, 2008  

Los Angeles debut! Catch Tere O'Connor Dance in Rammed Earth. Tere O'Connor Dance is one of downtown New York's most respected dance companies, in a new, full-length work, now sited for one of the Skirball's galleries. Set against the lines of Skirball architect Moshe Safdie's design, Rammed Earth explores the relationship between architecture and humanity. Its choreography challenges the perceived rigidity of built space, juxtaposing it with the fluidity of the human form.

Say the Word: A Declaration of Independents comes right on the heels of Fourth of July, delight in free-thinking, free-wheeling, funny, and liberating stories about independence and freedom from Beth Lapides - hailed by the LA Weekly as "the high priestess of alternative comedy" - Merrill Markoe (Walking in Circles Before Lying Down), Cindy Chupack (Sex and the City), Stephen Glass (The Fabulist), and more.
