Is every opportunity to dance always accompanied by music? If your answer is no, have you ever wondered what would it be like to dance in complete silence?

Once again, the AFDC is eager to go beyond the limits of the expected. It will be hosting Silence!, a silent dance party that promises to indulge your senses in a way you have probably never experienced before.

This thought-provoking event will feature:

-        wireless headphones that will enable you to tune 2 different music channels: the very best of French twist and electronic music (including those 10 top French songs that also made it to the American charts!)

-        a screening of a fine selection of French silent films

-        a mime performance, inspired by Marcel Marceau

-        and a silent poetic interactive performance that will include the opportunity to discover French sign language

Shake out the cold tonight and come meet us at AFDC’s newest location (421 7th St. NW in Chinatown), where you can expect to be surprised by a fascinating combination of silence and dance

When: Friday, January 20th at 7 p.m.

Where: 421 7th St. NW (District Architecture Center in Chinatown)
