"The LES Citizens Parade is an activist processional and series of performances connecting community members of NYC’s Lower East Side. Co-created with choreographer Naomi Goldberg Haas. Performed by neighborhood senior citizens and legendary senior dancers, the work creates a celebratory, visual journey that honors the experience of long-term residents as part of the River to River festival on June 22 and 24, 2018. Playing with the “migration” trope: we literally transform residents and dancers alike into a “moving company” - one which carries boxes bearing double-edged slogans like “fragile.” The procession culminates in a stage performance in the middle of Seward Park, the oldest municipal park in the
United States and the living room of the Lower East Side."
