“The eight dancers come and go, meet, join together, exchange information, part, and fall into new encounters, new joint projects. Many of these are vibrantly physical; the dancers launch themselves into the air, twist against unseen forces, wheel and slash their limbs—straight from shoulder to fingertips and from hips to toes—like propellers rioting.”
