Obra: Grace Engine

Rachel Rizzuto reviews Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet's Program C at BAM Howard Gilman Opera House.

Here are a company of versatile dancers. In the course of an evening they shifted from the hunched choreography of Hofesh Shechter to the long-limbed legginess of Crystal Pite, and also funny man Alexander Ekman’s rhythmic and irrational use of the body. In their first UK visit, Cedar Lake bring buckets of American performing talent but borrow some more familiar European choreographic skills.
