“…The way Mr. Petronio uses ever-shifting groups of dancers and the edges of the stage is structurally fascinating….this piece conveys a sense of both loss and mystery…Petronio is trying something new here, and the new can take time to settle before our eyes. Like most of his work, you want to see it again.”
