Black Grace “a revelation”

The US debut of Black Grace was one of the New York Times’ dance highlights of 2004. Says reviewer Jennifer Dunning; “The audience was filled with Berkshires vacationers of all ages and degrees of dance sophistication. But the performing and choreography of Black Grace … needed no translation. The all male troupe of dancers of Maori and Pacific Island descent made gutsy use of their bodies and athletic energy. Nothing surprising about that. What was unusual was the unsentimental spirituality.”
