1. PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE

You have a right to perform in the subways, on the sidewalks, and in the parks of New York City. The purpose of this guide is to clarify your rights and responsibilities as public space performers, especially when you are setting up underground. We also hope that officers in the New York Police Department, Station Managers, and Hearing Officers will find this guide useful when they are implementing New York City Transit regulations permitting subway performances.
Showtime is a type of performance Litefeet/pole dancing done as a busking routine using hand holds installed inside New York City Subway cars. Showtime includes acrobatic flips, hat and shoe tricks, and pole tricks. ... Some hip-hop dancers on the subway have looked down on the common litefeet moves used by other buskers.
Poledance combines dance and acrobatics centered on a vertical pole. This performance art form takes place not only in gentleman's clubs as erotic dance, but has also recently gained popularity as a mainstream form of fitness, practiced by many enthusiasts in gyms and in dedicated dance studios.Amateur and professional pole dancing competitions are held in countries around the world.
