Out of Line: Antonio Ramos Full Performance | The High Line

Antonio Ramos presents No Agenda Genda, a sci-fi piece of interactive dance theater dedicated to the legacy and memory of queer icons and movement-makers.

In a performance full of surprises, you may end up dancing the cha-cha in Antonio’s elaborate shoe collection, or enjoying tasty treats, at this glittering, exuberant engagement.
