The program is a little bit retro, a little bit kitsch as choreographer Adrianna Thompson puts together an old-school playlist of groovy tunes for A Pop Culture Journey Part II: From Funk to Punk, the second part of her paean to the rhythm of modernity. In its second season, SOULSKIN Dance capitalizes on the spirit of collaboration by pulling its acts together with other artists in the city, notably dancer/designer Jamielyn Duggan. Duggan's Eimaj Design opens the program with a runway show of looks that combine ballerina-chic sophistication with the experimental, radical self-expression of Burning Man and the dark, gothic edge of San Francisco's Death Guild. DJ CamCon spins tracks and hosts the night, which finishes up without winding down by inviting audience members onto the floor for a dance party.
SOULSKIN Dance presents A Pop Culture Journey Part II: From Funk to Punk at 8 p.m. through Saturday at Joe Goode Annex, 401 Alabama St., S.F. $20-$25; soulskin.brownpapertickets.com.
