What is Mascher Space???
Mascher Space Co-op is an artist-run space in South Kensington that serves as home base for a group of ten or more artists in residence at any given time.  With a mission that includes making local rehearsal, class, and performance space affordable and informal, Mascher gives Philly’s performance artists a place to make bold, refreshing new work.  Mascher itself is growing in exciting new directions: we recently gained non-profit fiscal sponsorship from Fractured Atlas. We’ve also made organizational changes that will enable us to become even more accessible to and useful for our community.  And we’re always looking for new members! For more info about becoming a member, the space, artists in residence, programs, or outside rentals, check http://www.mascherdance.com or email mascherdance@gmail.com

Throughout the spring, Mascher hosted the IN FLUX performance series to showcase the developing work of some of Philadelphia’s freshest choreographers. Now, a fabulous four from the original twelve participants have been selected to perform in the Philly Fringe; they’ve polished their dances to a shiny gloss and are looking forward to sharing what they’ve created. So come join us at Mascher’s home in North Philly for the final IN FLUX show of the year, and enjoy works by Bidisha Dasgupta, Meg Foley, Daniele Strawmyre, and Michelle Stortz!
