REVIEW: Two hybrid dance pieces close out this year’s SummerWorks Performance Festival
During the festival’s closing weekend, I saw two works that live side by side in my memory even as they differed in style and intention. Both Je ne vais pas inonder la mer (I Will Not Flood the Ocean) and Graveyards and Gardens explored memory, loss, and the body’s way of carrying history — one did so with devastating intimacy, the other with cerebral play.
