I am visiting SF from July 12 to 19.
I do Butoh in Japan. I am interested in taking workshops or going to see some butoh performances while I am in SF.
Please let me know if you know something.
Thank you, Yuki

  • i don't know of any... a little tough in the summer. bare bone butoh had a show last night and tonight as well. maybe shinichi might be having a workshop? most likely you'll have to hang at tama-san and hiroko restaurant in noe valley to get a little dose of abuse. they still have he country station in the mission, but they're not there. i'm with my family up 50min north of SF, if you are interested in the wine country.
    good luck!
    • Shinichi Iova-Koga is holding a workshop next week or thereafter as part of the Dancer's Group Summer workshops. Look up Dancer's Group and you'll find out everything you need to know.

      Also, not considered butoh, but (and I hate to say that but...) Anna Halprin will also teach a two-day workshop that is extremely informative for anyone wanting to explore and develop their creativity.

      Good luck
    • You have Ali just posted a show on the events section. Our Breath is as Thin as a Hummingbird's Spine: Nanos Operetta's new collaboration with the absolutely incredible physical theater group inkBoat. Shinichi is one of the founders of inkboat.
