Jeremy Barker reviews construct:
We've never seen choreography with so much character before, so much personality, to say nothing of such a broad sense of humor.

When I decided to join the Boy Scouts of America in the fourth grade, I was handed a block of wood and some wheels, and was told to make a car. This car would then be entered into a racing tournament, where there would be a winner, and inevitably some losers. I remember handing it to my dad, who then handed it to a neighbor, and he did all of the design work and constructing of the thing.
Walking into the theatre I found the performance space full of construction material – pieces of wood, ladder, sawhorses, and a boom box playing faint music. The stage was set and gave a raw industrial feel; I had no idea of the life these raw elements would take on as construct unfolded.

"Construct", a fine, fun performance that gives "dance workshop" a whole new meaning, is not to be missed. An hour where a whole lot happens. Brilliant conception, three wonderful dancers. Polyglot vocabulary of movement and theatrics. Dance macabre, dance satirical, dance mechanical, energetic dance of delight.
