Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Yvonne Meier

I am back at the Abrons Arts Center’s historic (but unconventionally programmed) jewel box, the Playhouse, so soon after the recent Jack Ferver extravaganza. This time around, the stage is hosting another choreographer, Yvonne Meier, whose “reconstruction” of The Shining I likewise had the opportunity to ruminate on earlier this season.

Arriving (fashionably?) late for a performance doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing: one can get much more than one bargained for. Such is the case when I walked into the lobby of New York Live Arts’ lovely venue in Chelsea last week, some five minutes behind schedule. Expletives are definitely running through my mind, as I observe that there are barely ten people mingling about.
