Whimsy and Tenderness in Motion: Frying Pans and Gentle Touches
By CLAUDIA LA ROCCO New York Times Jan. 10, 2012
“Pots as helmets, orange hazard cones, bowls and plates: the objects keep coming. So do the movement formations, as the choreography converses with the many tones — jazzy, industrial, playful — in Cage’s score. Khadda Madani’s costumes, short dresses with a hint of colorful patchwork trains, echo this idea of collage.”
