Along with collaborators Steven Hoggett and Christine Jones, David Byrne will be the voice of a new, collaborative social distance dance club in New York City.
The 55,000-square-foot space - dubbed SOCIAL! The Social Distance Dance Club - will be located in the Park Avenue Armory, and it invites attendees to "dance in their own socially distanced spotlights, all the while listening to a wonderfully singular instructional voice over by David Byrne with choreography by Yasmine Lee. Moving free-form or in sync with the spoken choreography (or not), audience members take part in a communal moment of cathartic release."
100 people will participate at any given time, and "each member will have a six-foot diameter circle in which to dance and move, spaced out from surrounding circles to provide proper social distancing at all times."
SOCIAL! The Social Distance Dance Club will be open from April 9-22.
