Roof Dance was first presented as a site-specific piece at the old Dixon Place on the Bowery and was performed by Scott Heron. The piece begins like a silent movie but what was presumed to be a prerecorded video shot on the roof comes to life as he climbs the window behind the audience.

Performance history:

Dixon Place, NYC (1999 – premiere)
The Painted Bride, Philadelphia, PA (1999)
