    About Stand Clear of the Closing Doors, Please (Spanish Language)

    Presented in Spanish at the Queens Botanical Garden, *Stand Clear of the Closing Doors, Please* arrives as a dance work rooted in New York City’s everyday transit language and the lives that move through it. Set outdoors, it places bodies in conversation with public space, migration, and the rhythms of borough life. The piece has circulated in NYC’s contemporary performance ecosystem, where bilingual work often functions as both access and archive. Its clearest strength is its attention to small gestures, treating translation as choreography rather than decoration.
