Dana and I drove out to Dallas last night to watch DWDT’s performance, Mixed Rep, and, as two theatre professionals, we couldn’t have been more enthralled by a performance art style outside of our own.
I commented to Dana at one point that I’m not a dance person, it’s not a form that reaches out to me. My nature is that I’m drawn to things that actually, literally, talk to me – Plays, Movies, Musicals, Storytelling, etc., but that doesn’t mean that we couldn’t both enjoy and understand the emotional expression as well as the strong visuals involved in this beautiful and engrossing performance.
It was DWDT’s last performance for their 2009-2010 season, but if you get the opportunity in the future I hope you won’t hesitate to go see these wonderfully talented dancers in action.
