Julia Rhoads is one of Dance Magazine's "25 to Watch" in 2010
Chicago’s Julia Rhoads/Lucky Plush Productions, one of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch” in 2010, showcases excerpts from Punk Yankees, a provocative and entertaining dance theater work that combines live performance, video, and the internet to ask questions about authenticity, originality, and the ownership of dance in the digital age.

Steal / Buy / Share at www.StealThisDance.com In conjunction with our 10th anniversary project Punk Yankees, Lucky Plush Productions has launched the website StealThisDance.com, a play on Abbie Hoffman's Steal this Book (1971). The site is intended to stimulate discussion and interaction around questions about intellectual property and the value of dance. On the site: - We are selling the company's past works, as well as “moves” for sale, supplied for site users to create derivative works. Users may choose whether or not to pay us for the material, provoking questions about the monetary value of choreography.
- There will be an “illegal arts” research database dealing with sampling, appropriation, and copyright law with reference links.
- A means for users to post their own videos to the site, both in response to our material and to share their choreography.
- Users will have the opportunity to pay the company for inclusion of their choreography in Punk Yankees. Intended to subvert the materiality of copyright, users will submit video of dance which they can pay to have transformed into a physical state-- live performance by a professional company.
