A woman stands on a ladder, arms outstretched. NAKA Dance Theater, Dismantling Tactic X, An experimental performance about race, white supremacy and self-determination Monday and Tuesday Feb 27-28 at 7pm. The Magic Theatre Fort Mason SF

Dismantling Tactic X is a set of performative actions that unveil the ways in which racism and white supremacy operate in our towns and communities. We use dance, percussion and spoken word and song to place the devastating reality of the hegemonic system at the center, in order to dismantle and radically transform it.

The work is an ongoing practice of experimentation and improvisation that began in 2018 with a presentation at the FRESH Festival in San Francisco. The most recent iteration was performed in an artistic resistance residency in Mexico City and Tepoztlan, Morelos, and was created and produced through a horizontal process with a cast of nine dancers, poets, percussionists and organizers.

Featuring: Tongo Eisen-Martin (Monday only), Music Research Strategies (Marshall Trammell), Krhistina Giles, Ronja Ver, Amelia Uzategui-Bonilla, Fox Nakai and Cristina López Suárez.

Tickets $20. NOTAFLOF: No one turned away!

Dismantling Tactic X is funded in part by the Zellerbach Family Foundation.
