My sister Rebekah recently turned me on to this little happening over in our neighboring, Europe. Guerrilla Dance Project, based out of London, England, is a group that creates monthly performances around the city and has performed internationally in Zagreb, Croatia. Their material is generally set, and focuses on object manipulation to guide their movement and aid in being able to "appear and disappear." From what I've seen, they vary from sitting at a table in a cafe and dancing from that spot, or having seven people against a wall in a line, and slowly breaking out from reading a paper, all the way to slowly rolling down an entire staircase.
A short trailer of what GDP does is right here, and a longer video and interview with the leader of this group Laura Kriefman can be found here.
Check out their website for touring dates, more info about the group, and a list of on-stage performances they do/have done.
