Here's Flo. She won us over with her initial email saying, "I'd like to audition w/ you this saturday, if you think you can use a butoh-hula-modern dancer. (i'm also an ex-singer w/ assorted groups for ~20 years back in the day.)" We auditioned her and we said, YES, let's go with the FLO! Photo by Borys Procak, per usual. By the way, that crucifix set is for another show. Here's Flo's bio:Flo Nakamura took dance classes from childhood on, dropped it . . . returned to it via 100s of improv jams at Judson Church in New York City. Eventually, she began dancing with Iona Contemporary Dance Theatre and the Giinko Marischino/Wild Hair Jabong ensembles in Hawaii. Transplanted last year into the rich soil that is San Francisco, she continues to delve into the intersections of performance, inspiration, and meditative (non-thinking) dance improvisation here, and can be seen from time to time at Bare Bones Butoh in the Mission. Flo has also sung for start-up rock and world-beat bands in Boston and New York, in the 80s and 90s. More at www.iamlovingthis.com.
