Gone For Now, But Not Forgotten

With performance venues and dance studios closed, here are this week’s SoCal dance events that have cancelled. Why list dance events that have been cancelled or postponed? As a reminder of the investment of work, time, and money that dancers and choreographers put in and who now are without work or pay. While many hope to reschedule, some are shifting to on-line performances (latest info below; please check the websites as these transitions are occurring daily), and for now there are links for information and connection.
