Establishments: Dance Place

After running into Holly B. I ventured over to Dance Place with my friend Jerry. Deborah Riley Dance Projects, one of the resident companies performed a piece examining our relationship and perceptions regarding food and nutrition.

It was neat because Jerry's a chef, so having that perspective made for some particularly insightful dialogue after the performance.

Speaking of chef's, Peter DiMuro, director of Dance/MetroDC, played one in the piece with some monologues which provided some thoughtful transitions between sections of the evening length piece.

Anyway, Dance Place is just an amazing example of community and engagement. They've got performance virtually every weekend of the year by local, national, and international dancers.

And it's very metro accessible, barely a 10 minute walk from the Brookland-CUA metro station.
