The MAP Fund announced their 2022 Grant Cycle, which will distribute $2.6M to new, live performance projects in the United States and its territories that connect with MAP’s mission to invest in artistic production as the critical foundation of imagining, and ultimately co-creating, a more equitable and vibrant society.

R+D: Early Project Support For Parents & Guardians
Los Angeles Performance Practice is thrilled to further expand on our Research + Development (R+D) program offerings by announcing a new residency opportunity for parents/guardians.
The program will support an early development process for two invited projects. Each invited residency will receive a $1,200 stipend, a $800 contribution towards childcare expenses, and one week or approximately 40 hours in a work/rehearsal space. We are open to artists constructing their time in a way that serves their creativity and their parenting lives, and will work with each invited artist to find an appropriate work space based on the project’s needs and the program’s available resources.
underground underneath the underground (remix): a nomadic psychosomatic club experience with Estrellx Supernova
Monday, February 28, 2022 from 5-8:30pm.
In this workshop / session, we will set a personal intention for our practice together that will collectively invite in the potency of our desires, erotic potential, and dreams into the center of our space. Our bodies are our compass and we will tune, listen, confide in and with stillness, and from this sacred place allow what needs to happen to unfold. Technically speaking, we will move between healing circle orientations, club dancing and improvisational scores, and some distillations from biodynamic craniosacral therapy remixed with my own choreographic curanderx and divination practices.
