Dance Review Review

With Nods to Schoenberg and Dr. King

I was unimpressed by this review of Monstah Black's "Black Moon."  Kourklas feels the need to describe everything she sees, albeit too briefly.  Rather than delving deeply into a few select images, she glosses over what seems like the entire piece.  Truth be told, I could not tell whether or not she even liked the piece, or whether or not I should be interested in seeing it.  In my opinion, this was not a very well written review, because it seemed to serve no purpose, other than the author’s ability to say, “I saw this.  This is what happened.”
