Tuesday, July 23, 2019 by Tai Moses
Forklift Danceworks’ “My Park, My Pool, My City,” a trilogy of collaborative, neighborhood-inspired performances enacted in Austin’s public swimming pools, comes to an end this weekend with the second and final performance of Givens Swims. “From neighborhood teens to community elders, the story of Givens Pool will be told by the people who have long lived, worked and played around this historic place.” Audience members are encouraged to come in bathing attire and flip-flops as they will be invited to enter the pool. Those who volunteer to help will be guaranteed a seat at the performance. If you have a promo code, you can reserve tickets here. All others, tickets are available at the door, first come, first served. Saturday and Sunday, July 27-28, 8:30 p.m., Givens Neighborhood Pool, 3811 E. 12th St.
