Fringe 2023 - Blink and You’ll Miss It - Rope Dances


Fringe is the time when I normally see most of the dance I’m going to see in any given year.  This year is no different.  There are just under a dozen shows that identify themselves with a dance and/or dance - modern tag in the line-up for Fringe 2023.

And one of them is only around for opening weekend, just Friday and Saturday.  And Friday’s performance went from sell-out risk to pre-sale closed status this week (and the Fringe is still four days off so…)

Movement pieces inspired by Shibari - the ancient art of rope tying - used in a fun and artistic way. Dance, mime, aerial & performance art in a rope-webbed space.

Rope Dances is over at the Four Seasons Dance Studio, right by Loring Park, in the neighborhood where the Fringe got its start 30 years ago.

If the show sounds interesting to you, it looks like you probably get a ticket for the Saturday show now.

UPDATE 8/2, a.m.: Looks like both shows are open for ticketing again - maybe they found a few more chairs for the studio :)  Still just two performances, though, Friday and Saturday.  Catch 'em while you can.
