Work: Blush

17 years after its premiere, Andrea Miller’s BLUSH, set on her company, GALLIM, returned to entrance and perplex in equal measure at New York’s 92nd St Y.

Andrea Miller’s Gallim dancers, in Wednesday night’s showing of Blush, seemed to teeter wonderfully on the edge of physicality’s limits, even as the emotionally exhausting piece came to an abrupt and incongruous ending.In Ms Miller’s work, the dancers are clothed in modern-day wrestling or gladiator gear (costume design by Jose Solis), with their faces and bodies covered by a fine, white dusting.
