At a rally this afternoon at City Hall, Dance New Amsterdam's Executive Director Kate Peila announced that she had just held a productive, positive meeting with all parties involved in DNA's dispute with Fram Realty and the City of New York. ("Everyone was there...and it was very fun!" said the jubilant Peila.) Details will follow but, for now, we have the hopeful news that the landlord and city are willing to continue talks to renegotiate DNA's lease, and the remarkable center for dance no longer faces imminent eviction.
