360 Degrees of Dance

I had seen the dance/installation performance live last year, so I thought I knew what to expect. But strapping on those VR goggles thrust me into what felt like a first date with someone I thought I already knew.

BeginAgain at BAC as a part of Coil Festival Katie Naka's thoughts on the work
This show was heavy on (as Anne Bogart would say), “Things you can’t fake.”  Which is inherent in the craft and part of what I also love about dance (and circus for that matter).  But beyond the technical dance feats, certain design elements of this show really resonated with me: the red dirt on the ground getting kicked up and hanging in the light as the dancers increased their intensity.  The subtle smudges of it that clung to their faces and legs even after they moved out of it.  The physical intimacy.  These aren’t effects- it was all there, laid bare.  I love that.
