ODC Goes Global

ODC, our Mission-based dance company, is going global.

Representing the Mission since 1978, they’ve been selected by the Department of State to represent DanceMotion USA and tour Thailand, Burma and Indonesia in 2010.

If you’re not familiar with ODC, go check them out. They have a kick-ass facility at Shotwell & 18th.  I’m your typical beer-drinking, burrito-eating, sports-watching, indy-listening white dude, yet I really enjoy their performances.  (Note – I have fallen asleep at the opera and ballet.)

The yearly ODC Toe-to-Toe benefit — ODC dancers vs Cal-Berkeley student athletes face off, both on the court and the dance floor — was also quite entertaining (plus good food!), so mark your calendar for April next year.
