rplaut Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 If you can possibly make it tonight, run, don't walk, to get tickets for Batsheva at the Eisenhower. Last night's performance was inspirational. You will see excellent, contemporary modern choreography; extremely strong dancers, any one of whom can hold the audience breathless; works full of comedy, drama, and eccentricities; and great music (although it is often too loud). One of my favorites was an audience participation piece that is just brilliant. You can see this great performance for only $19 in the balcony--perfect view. Don't miss it! Link to comment
koshka Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 I saw it last night and thought it was interesting but was left wishing for a whole lot more information in the program. For example, the piece with the 5 men who painted themselves would've been a lot more interesting if I'd known it was about drugs, as I heard while standing in line for the ladies' room at intermission. The audience participation piece was remarkable. Link to comment
