Pink Hair Affair Perform “oOOoOoOo”
Friday, September 12th, 2008
Last night, Melissa and I checked out "oOOoOoOo", a modern dance performance put on by Pink Hair Affair. I don’t know too much about dance, aside from occasional Fringe Fest gambles, but this show was highly entertaining.
Taking place at the Adrienne Theatre, these girls put on a rigorous performance with often hysterical tongue-in-cheek overtones.
"Rotation Corporation", starring Laura Jenkins (who is also a Philadelphia Eagles cheerleader) and Jacklyn Koch, was a great jab at office job women who are ridiculously being flirtations and boldly showing off their bodies in skimpy mini-skirts while swiveling around on wheeled office chairs. Laura and Jacklyn also performed "Orbation" together, which featured dancing and twisting on round wooden spinning devices.
"Fluid Reverie", featuring a great Boards of Canada song, was a gorgeous trance of give and take featuring every member (I believe) of Pink Hair Affair.
When it was over, I definitely wanted to watch it again! But, instead we went to The Devil’s Alley Bar and Grill for some awesome crab and guacamole quesadillas. Yeahhhhh. The only thing that sucked about this place was the music, as they just had a radio on set to a local 70s station. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood for "Feel Like Makin’ Love" that night.
