“A thoughtful new dance by New York choreographer Jessica Lang...it gave the company depth and a new lyrical style. The structural use of space provided a hint of mystery. The rush and flow, the ever-changing views, suggested that life is full of complexity and inconsistency, that who we are is layered in mystery.”
