I was expecting a lot from this combination of dancers and choreographer... and they delivered. I got chills. Thank you TiVo for allowing me to rewind and watch it again.
Beautiful front extension from Kathryn during the opening. Oh, to have those legs! Stacey made great use of Robert and Kathryn's beautiful arabesques and attitudes throughout the piece. The choreography was soft, intimate, deep and surprising. Like Nigel, I loved the twist at the end that Kathryn was the one going off to war, not Robert. Their movement was strong and their emotions matched the grittiness of Katie Thompson's voice. I think it could have had more continuity during transitions, but that is me being super picky. Beautiful job!
Big fan of Katie Thompson by the way. I had the opportunity to choreograph to Katie Thompson a few years ago for Molly's solo it was an awesome experience. The rawness of her vocals combined with the intimacy of her solo piano creates a powerful musical composition.
