Dance Umbrella will present choreographer/performers Art Bridgman and Myrna Packer in their acclaimed Trilogy of dance and video works, Seductive Reasoning (2003), Under the Skin (2005), and Memory Bank (2007). Trilogy explores the intricacies of identity, gender, perception, and intimacy through Bridgman/Packer’s choreographic concept of “video partnering” — the highly visceral and visually arresting integration of live performance and video technology which explodes the duet form into a magically populated stage where image and reality collide.

"The most thrilling dance work this reviewer has seen in recent memory...flat-out exhilarating."
Karen Campbell, The Boston Globe
