Pontus Lidberg Dance

What was doing the work: the movement, the structure, the sound, or the production?

Did the work rely on spectacle? What is the spectacle; do you include the mask and the puppet?

The girl had absolutely beautiful feet. I noticed this mainly in the first piece. The green dress in the first piece was absolutely gorgeous.

I noticed many times when Pontus moves his arms and it quite literally looked like he had wings because his movement was just so fluid. The girl’s feet moved in much the same way. It was insane.

The puppetry was amazing. The puppet itself was very high quality in terms of the range and realness of motion that it had. The way that the dancers moved it made it even more lifelike.

The gradient cloaks and pants were beautiful.

I loved the physical connection that the dancers had, how they put weight into each other and transitioned between movements.
