Concluding a yearlong residency at Bates, chipaumire and company present the New England premiere of "100% POP." Developed in part at the Bates Dance Festival, the piece instigates the idea of a "cover" through Grace Jones' renowned "one-man show," soundclashing, Zimbabwe’s Chimurenga music, dub and noise. It explores how "information and knowledge were acquired by those of us who grew up in less free times." A dance party follows Saturday's show. $25/$18/$12: batesdancefestival.org.
