Everybody's thrilled by and writing about
Neil Greenberg's new
Really Queer Dance with Harps, and you should really queerly or otherwise see it--especially for the radiant trio of harpists, led by composer
Zeena Parkins, at the golden heart of the piece. But my own really queer
heart has gone and continues to go out to
Quartet with Three Gay Men, the 2006 work danced by Greenberg,
Luke Miller,
Antonio Ramos and
Colin Stillwell. It's just--
hooray!--11 minutes, and some of that time is spent dancing to RuPaul's "Supermodel (You Better Work)." Can't go wrong, in my book, with RuPaul. And it's a fantastic dance, too, like a prism breaking Greenberg into four avatars who render his spacious movement with luscious, queerforward simplicity. Oh, did I mention it's only 11 minutes? Brevity, the soul of wit.
