The One Hundreds: Phrases 1 - 100

Contemporary Dance/Fort Worth and guests will perform Twyla Tharp's The One Hundreds: Phrases 1-100. When Tharp originally developed this dance in 1970, she wanted to address three questions she faced as a performing dancer: 1) how accurate is my memory? 2) how good is my coordination? 3) how strong is my sense of beginnings, middles and endings? Tharp created 100 eleven-second phrases in answer to these questions. Combining imagery from traditional dance techniques, sports, and popular culture, and all performed in silence -- this series of phrases is like a series of "short stories" with a variety of references and entry points for different viewers.
