John Jasperse is a name you should know: his cerebral dances, acclaimed in New York and throughout Europe (William Forsythe is a fan) transformed contemporary dance beginning with 1995’s Excessories. He returns to Dance Theater Workshop this week with a trio, Becky, Jodi and John, featuring himself and two of downtown dance’s most riveting performers: Becky Hilton and Jodi Melnick.
I recommend this for the opportunity to witness extremely high-quality performers. There’s live music by Hawn Rowe (he’s a genius). But the main reason is that this dance is about dancers (the three met in New York in the mid-’80s). There’s nudity, but it’s not like Ann Liv. I won’t say anything else. Just go.
