dance flash @ the appeal: women on the way

this week at the san francisco appeal, i focused on the women on the way festival. here's an excerpt:

it's an empowering celebration of boobs and hoo hahs at the women on the way (WOW) festival, which starts this weekend and continues through the end of the month, and with 19 vastly different performing arts groups (theater, dance, spoken word, comedy, and aerial work), this festival covers a lot of ground. artistic director mary alice fry says that women on the way tries "to help women break through to a place where they can recognize where their professional careers might be going and make a commitment to themselves."

for the entire advance, go here.
