ib-Hzcmw1L8 The Double Nickels Dance Theatre was at the Newseum  in Washington, DC for the kickoff press conference for the National Cherry Blossom Festival.  

As we  get closer to "Hanami Festival—Through the Eyes of Seniors" (the Double Nickels Theatre Company production in conjunction with the Cherry Blossom Festival), we thought we'd take you down memory lane with a look at the Cherry Blossom celebration in 1944. Our conversations with seniors have been incredible, and this is shaping up to be an amazing production. Hope to see you at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre on April 9 at 6:30.   watch?feature=player_embedded&v=U9jDe8Y-bKA#!
