[ dance ]

Like father, like daughter? Seems that way with Lindsay Browning. Her actor dad portrayed Abraham Lincoln when Lindsay was a kid, and now, 21 years later, her first full-length dance theater production is Lincoln Luck, about a daughter whose father may or may not bear a resemblance to our 16th president. It's a dreamy contemplation about what is and what's to come, and how a single event has the potential to significantly alter a life. If you need additional persuasion to go see it, the show's collaborators include polished performers David Browning (Lindsay's dad), Myra Bazell, John Luna (also contributing video) and newcomer Tommy Burkel (a boy whose role will remain secret for the sake of surprise).

Fri.-Sat., Feb. 10-11, 8 p.m., $20-$25, Painted Bride Art Center, 230 Vine St., 215-925-9914, paintedbride.org.
