FREE Performance by Project Bandaloop: Dancers Hang Off a Building in Downtown

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

To be blunt: Project Bandaloop are insane. They are a dance company that create performances by suspending themselves from architectural structures and use the natural gravity to create the allusion of flight. These are true artists: they hang off the sides of skyscrapers for their art. That’s commitment to the craft.

Tonight and Saturday, September 16 and September 17, they will be in the Bay Area in downtown Oakland at the Great Wall of Oakland and it’s FREE. The streets will be closed and although the performance starts at 8:30pm, suggested time to get there is 6:30pm. Bring a lawn chair, blanket, some cheap eats and booze, and check out the show. This one is definitely worth transversing the Bay (and it is right near the 19th Street BART Station.

Check out a video of an unbelievable performance in Dallas.
