Double dose of Guerin.
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]
This fall, New York gets a double dose of Australia's Lucy
Guerin. Her choreography fascinates on many levels, from the most
intricate gesture to grandly dramatic themes. In Corridor (Sept. 16-20
at Baryshnikov Arts Center), the dancers react to information received
by phone, iPod, and notes. DTW will show Structure and Sadness (Oct.
1-3), based on Melbourne's 1970 West Gate Bridge tragedy.
Guerin's inventive language and set design draw on the physics of
structural engineering--and runs a gut-wrenching gamut from construction
to collapse. See www.bacnyc.org or www.dtw.org.--Susan Yung
