This summer, school is back in session. School, KML style. Join us as we give history presence. Our new show is called KML Springs Forward Falls Back and it's up July 10 through 27 at San Francisco's Dance Mission Theater.

This all-star pajama-jammy jam tribute to cavemen, pilgrims, founding fathers, founding mothers, flappers, hep cats, presidents, prime ministers, ne'er-do-wells and might-have-beens--the greats and the not-so-greats we all learned about in our history books and struggle to recall with the help of Wikipedia. The madness is directed by KML vet Andy Alabran, features members Sarah Mitchell, Todd Brotze, Leslie Waggoner, and three newcomers to the KML scene: Sally Clawson, Joseph O'Malley, and Patrick Russell. The show also features music by Olive Mitra and Mike Smith (KML's For the Very First Time and Faces the Music) and choreography from the Erika Chong Shuch Performance Project's Jen Chien.

It's gonna be a show for the ages. Afterall, it's a show about the ages.

And watch this space for more on the show very soon! [Photo by Ashley Forrette]
