Event Details

A random encounter with a camera on the streets of Tallinn, Estonia, made choreographer and dancer Rakesh Sukesh a momentary poster boy for a right wing news channel’s campaign against immigration from Asia and Africa.

What happens to his body when it is rendered into a viral, racist symbol?

In “because i love the diversity (this micro-attitude, we all have it,)” Rakesh tells the story of his own journey through the powerful semi-improvisational, trance-like movement technique that makes him such an in-demand teacher across the world.

Content warnings: brief, full nudity; optional gluten and dairy.

Tickets are $20-$50
