NewTown, the Altadena-based arts collective, is having a kind of public transit flash mob going on Saturday.
"Hallelujah/Aloha: a surrpetitious intervention for six voices" by Richard Amromin will run roughly from 1:20 PM to 6 PM Saturday. A vocal sextet will perform at Sierra Madre Gold Line station at 2:15, take the train making one stop along the route to Union Station, arrive and perform at Union Station around 3:28, leave at 4:01, making one stop along the way, arrive at Sierra Madre station and take taxis to 415 S. Lake Ave. (Macy's), arrive and perform, wandering north to 345 S. Lake (The Shops on Lake Avenue area), where the event ends.
NewTown says: "The event is free. If you want to travel with the event, the day pass on the Gold Line is $6 ... "Hallalujah/Aloha is intended as a subtle public intervention. If you choose to attend we ask that you do not act like an audience. Simply mingle in the area as if doing other things."
We've got a line in on a different flash mob event Friday which we hope to show you on video later in the day. Sorry, can't give any details!
