Amy Foley, founder of Bellwether Dance Project and one of the latest feminist choreographers on the Bay Area scene, talks about what it means to make feminist dance, challenging a tradition that imposes narrow constraints on the bodies and lives of women dancers. Foley's inaugural home show, Let Slip the Witches, includes three premieres - two she choreographed herself as well as a solo created for her by Bay Area treasure, Robert Moses, as well as her piece "Thighs and Wages," which explores society's devaluation of women. Let Slip the Witches shows Thursday-Saturday, April 4-6, at ODC theater in San Francisco or call 415-863-9834.
