I just found out about it when I was in Boston -- alas too late to change my summer plans, I have to stay here and work except for a few days back in Boston in early August for a family reunion. But my intrepid mother, age 88, is hoping to get down there. The choreographer/creator (she's also a poet, writer, and yoga teacher) is my cousin, Diana Tokaji. [photo above left]
There is a whole ensemble for this season, and the performance will include instrumental and vocal jazz, movement, and spoken word. Diana usually choreographs and performs with Josephine Nicholson [on left in photo below -- they are the "Weerd Sisters"]

Diana is married and the mother of two very lively boys. And in her early 50s. (She's been dancing and choreographing for years with mixed-age groups.) And beautiful! If you can, go see the show and cheer on my behalf.

The show includes vocals by Nigerian soprano (also trained as an attorney!) Chinwe Enu [photo, left] and saxophone by 17-year old Elijah Balbed.
Performances are the weekends of July 20 and July 27. Check out the link at the top of this post for details.
