i'm sorry my opinions have offended some readers. but in the same respect, i am happy my writing about dance has opened dialogue about recent performances. i want everyone to understand that my opinion is not the only one out there. when i attend performances, i'm not looking for extensions to the head and perfect feet. i'm not looking for the most amazing dance i've ever seen in my life at every show i attend. i'm looking for intelligent composition, even if the work is not intellectual. i'm looking for an appropriate level of technique that matches that of the choreography. i'm looking for a uniqueness and innovation of movement that allows dance to evolve. i'm looking for a passion and dedication to character that is infectious to the audience as well as honest.
