The Derrière Garde had a featured role in "Happy Birthday, Dada!" on Saturday, April 1, 2006 (2:00 to 4:00 pm) at NYC Arts Cypher (12 Broad St., Staten Island), an event organized by Day de Dada to celebrate the 90th birthday of the Dada movement.

The Derrière Garde performed his brief ritual throughout the event, providing his fundamental cautionary advice to attendees and participants alike in (mostly) one-on-one interaction during the course of the day. (As always, specific CYA guidelines and individual consultation were also available upon request.) An estimated 70 persons were duly warned. See documentation below.

| The Derrière Garde's alter ego, Allan Douglass Coleman, originated and conducted two other events at "Happy Birthday, Dada!" that afternoon: a repeat performance (by special request of the organizers) of his audience-participation poem "No More Aleutians!" and the world premiere of a new work, "Humorisqué." Both were well-received by the appreciative attendees. |
