Welcome
to the website for "Waking Persephone"
- an event specializing in exploring the dark and the
unusual within the realm of bellydance. This event will
first took place April 13th-15th, 2012 in Providence,
Rhode Island - the heart of New England.
WP is a different kind of dark dance event experience,
with a core focus on education and exploration, creating
community while breaking borders. While there are indeed
be performing opportunities, the main goal is an intensive
series of classes, lectures, and activities featuring
both new and established faces in the
genres of dark, gothic, steampunk, experimental, theatrical,
and ritual dances. Over the course of 4 days, there
are two shows, live music performances, workshops, master
classes, panel discussions, vending, and more.
