Merce's Memorial

Merce’s Memorial
Merce’s farewell
Merce’s final, intimate kiss goodnight to his City

standing there last night under the impossibly high ceiling of the Armory suddenly having the vast open space feel intimate with familiar abstract sounds, familiar faces and the most exquisite and familiar dances ever to have graced the Armory on Park Avenue. 

The young, athletic bodies dancing in a center space then disperse, unseen, to reappear on three diagonally situated stages.  Lithe bodies bound and rebound, contract and extend, leap and land on mere toes.

Thank you dancers, administrators, audience and Merce!
