It is funny how rehearsal sometimes differs form my intentions going in. Eryn and David are both great dancers and work hard to get things right. I asked them to start speaking while they were dancing, kind of messing up their practiced flow to see what would happen. Because the movement is so jerky and stop/start, there is a tendency to make it aggressive, and I want to see if there are other places that it could go in contrast to the first choice. This week I want to make them dance partner-less, imagining the support of the other and seeing how that changes things, and also role-switching so Eryn can do some lifting. I will see how much that plan changes tonight...
