Weaving stories, dances, songs and live music in the moment

WING IT! Performs

Expect to laugh and maybe even cry!

Phil Porter

Oakland, CA

Friday & Saturday, Feb 26 & 27, 2016 • 7:30 pm

WING IT! creates two evenings of magic with their characterisic combination of depth and humor. They weave together dance, story, song and live music all on the spot.

WING IT! Performance Ensemble, founded by Cynthia Winton-Henry and Phil Porter has been shaping improvisational performances for over 25 years with a troupe that has numbered over twenty. They use a variety of themes and images to focus the work for each series of performances, but everything is created in the moment giving it a liveliness and immediacy. No two performances are the same in content.

We take words from the audience at the beginning, so expect to see yourself in what gets created. We're doing is just for you!

These performances are part of a weekend of events including the Plays Well with Others workshop led by Cynthia Winton-Henry and Soyinka Rahim on Sunday, February 28 from 1–5 pm and LEAP! a celebration of the Leap Year Day anniversary of the dedication of the InterPlayce studio in 2004.

Cost: $10 in advance/$15 at the door
