2-2: The Unbearable Lightness of Lingering By Paul Ben-Itzak
(For the woman with the Indigo Girls quote on her screen saver. "I'm crawling on your shore.") Imagine you are in a world slowed so that you can appreciate every breath, every parting of the lips, every ripple of the skin in every undulation. When a dancer arrests motion, she arrests life and gives us the ability to relish it, breath by breath. This is what was given to me Tuesday night at the Joyce, in Colorado Ballet's production of Stanton Welch's "Of Blessed Memory," by the ballerina Maria Mosina. |
