Jane Franklin Dance and Lloyd House Gardens Present Moving Stories by janefranklindance, last updated: Aug 25, 2024 11:07 PM
Moving Stories is a movement-based work that is about historical Lloyd House and its Gardens, not as a static landmark, but rather as a place where people of different generations interact. The performance resonates with the landscape and references the site's history. Lloyd House, built in 1796, has housed many prominent people and is important to the streetscape of Washington Street, part of George Washington Memorial Parkway. The architecture of the building, the people who have lived there, and the changing community surrounding it, makes the location important to ALX275, the City of Alexandria’s 275th Anniversary.

The performance resonates with the landscape and references the site's history. Lloyd House, built in 1796, has housed many prominent people and is important to the streetscape of Washington Street, part of George Washington Memorial Parkway. The architecture of the building, the people who have lived there, and the changing community surrounding it, makes the location important to ALX275, the City of Alexandria’s 275th Anniversary. The landscape of the Lloyd House Gardens is defined by areas of soft greenery, unyielding surfaces and negative space. For this performance, movement interacts with a sound score layered with statements about the landmark’s history and its current role in Alexandria. People of all ages may participate in a pre-performance workshop. (Preps)

Goebbels had a right-wing bias so of course my bias is much more left-wing than his.

Your left-wing bias when summarizing posts is even worse that that of Goebbels. I must admit though that you sometimes write "in my opinion" which [...]
