Dance2006
People who don’t speak the language of the country in which they are either a resident or a visitor are particularly aware of the power of physical communication. If it weren’t for friendly smiles or directional hand gestures, many of us would be much more isolated within our environment. During the tenth annual international dance festival — Dance2006, “Body Spheres” — performers from nine countries will explore how physicality is an element of continuity linking the disparate experiences of people all over the world. Seventeen productions, including six premieres and two historic dance reconstructions, will take place in the city from October 28 to November 12. For a full schedule of events, see
