Weather Cancels Saturday Afternoon Bandaloop Performance

Fred SanFilipo for WXXI News

The rainy weather on Saturday afternoon canceled a 4pm performance of the aerial dance troupe Bandaloop, which did perform its act along the outside of the HSBC building in downtown Rochester on Friday night. It’s part of the Fringe Festival which continues through September 28th.

But organizers say the rain creates safety issues, so they had to cancel the Saturday afternoon performance along with actitivies in Manhattan Square Park. That show could not be rescheduled due to the Bandaloop troupe’s schedule.

However there are still a number of activities indoors continuing Saturday including an evening performance by comedian Marc Maron.
