Dance Review: Compagnie Hervé KOUBI — Multiculturalism, Inspired

This acrobatic physicality doesn’t come off as a test of testosterone or showboating.

Fuse Dance Review: Gauthier Dance — Distinctive Exuberance

As a group they are exuberant, personable, immediate, which in turn makes even the meh choreography palatable.

Dance Review: Bereishit Dance Company — Cosmopolitan Grace

Soon-Ho Park’s dancers seem imbued with the casual cosmopolitanism of their peers, but they reflect a deep seriousness in their craft.

Dance Review: Jessica Lang Dance’s “The Wanderer” — Beware the Brook

Perhaps there’s no way to reproduce the subtlety of this work in the theater today. Our stages are so materialistic, so technological.

Fuse Dance Review: Company Wang Ramirez at Jacob’s Pillow — Love Hurts

Monchichi is about relationships but focused on this particular relationship, in which affection and intimacy and joy and sometimes frustration exist.

Dance Review: A Heartfelt “Cinderella” at Jacob’s Pillow

for Elena Zahlman as Cinderella

Cinderella isn’t a lavish spectacle à la the Met, but rather, like its heroine, modest on the surface while pulsing with a generous heart underneath.

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Dance, Featured, Review Tagged: Cinderella, Jacobs-Pillow-Dance-Festival, Janine Parker, New York Theatre Ballet

Dance Review: Crackling Out The Blues

This is Michelle Dorrance’s break out year, or perhaps more accurately the year people outside the intimate tap community got to know her by sight and reputation.

By: Debra Cash Filed Under: Dance, Featured Tagged: Derick K. Grant, Dormeshia Sumbry-Edwards, Dorrance Dance, Jacobs-Pillow-Dance-Festival, Michelle Dorrance, The Blues Project

Coming Attractions: Regional Summer Dance Performances

Yes, there is dance in New England this summer, but those who love motion may need to embark on a little themselves to journey further afield to watch it. The trip, I can assure you, will be worth it.

Judicial Review #2: Serenade/The Proposition at Jacob’s Pillow

What is a Judicial Review? It is a fresh approach to creating a conversational, critical space about the arts. The aim is to combine editorial integrity with the community—making power of interactivity. This is our second session. Hear Ye! Hear Ye! For dance critic Debra Cash, Serenade/The Proposition, the first of Bill T. Jones’s investigations […]
