WING IT! Takes on the Gulf Oil Spill Fiasco
WING IT! Performs "Oil & Water Don't Mix!"
Phil Porter
Oakland, CA
Tuesday, August 3 • 7:30 pm
One Night Only!
WING IT! brings its many ways of "knowing and saying" to the tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico. They will use stories, movement, songs and live music to give voice to all that we are experiencing because of the spill--personally, politically, environmentally, socially, emotionally.
This evening is also part of a conference, "Art & Social Change for Next Gen Leaders," which is happening at InterPlayce in Oakland the first two weeks of August. The dozen 18-25 year-old artists/activists who are coming for the conference will be our special guests.
A special question and answer session will follow the performance.
Cost: $10 in advance/$15 at the door
