Choreographer Tanja Liedtke had an endless capacity for movement invention, a great sense of theatre, and the ability to paint fine shades of emotional tone. construct, her final work, is a noun, a verb, and a metaphor. It's also a sharp, fresh, and wickedly funny look at mankind's desire to build. With audacity and originality, three dancers perform Liedtke's speedy and athletic choreography as she explores the construction, comfort -- and inevitable collapse -- of houses, emotional relationships, lives, futures - and dreams.
Lasting just over an hour, construct is a small-scale marvel. ... demon entertainers fill this candid, complex show with the kind of clever movement that has the audience laughing out loud and frequently bursting into spontaneous applause.
