PICA will present three performances of Opposing Forces as part of the TBA Festival along with a panel discussion and workshop with local dance artists. Seattle-based choreographer Amy O'Neal's Opposing Forces is a dance performance with a cast of B-Boys (break dancers) that questions perceptions of femininity and its impact on male behavior. The cast consists of seven B-Boys from different crews in Seattle who are of different generations and cultures.
