Pull Yourself Together

hiljames movement—The Rachel Browne Theatre

This dance show felt like such a journey! With beautiful and funny choreography, the first half of the show had me laughing nearly to tears, and shifted to feel like we were working though something much heavier towards the end. I love the way that movement can tell a story, and all three performers are beautiful dancers. The ambiguity of these contemporary dance shows allows the audience to imagine how their lives can relate to the material presented and find meaning and symbolism. There’s some good material here that’s worth considering. What a fun show!
