Saw an interesting program --including a piece by Christopher Wheeldon and Kurt Jooss's the Green Table--an old masterwork. A 3rd piece that--for me--was an empty display vehicle that didn't go anywhere (except in circles --very static). Wheeldon is very clever and talented. However, After the Rain's concluding section--a duet--seemed to me very manipulative and I felt that the man was totally unknown at the end--while the woman was painfully vulnerable.
More on THe Green Table later... I had forgotten that Kurt Jooss had studied with Rudolf Laban! Part of the family tree!
Off into the snow.....
