Summer Choreography Project 2014

Last night at the Cape Cod Dance Center, we saw Ali Kenner Brodsky whose solo brought the tears to my eyes immediately. Titled "Between", it brings us immediately into a place of tension and fear, the state of fighting cancer, which took the composer of the music she used, and has weakened her mother these past few years.
The other professional dancer, Meghan Carmichael, had a much lighter piece, centering on fruit, young love, and a knowing observer.
The student work was also lovely, all contemporary, focusing on the intent of the dancers rather than the pure form of ballet. We saw young dancers enjoying themselves, with much of the show their own choreography.
And home to the next batch of company.
