A wondrous duet by Natalie Mackessy and Barrington Hinds to Cave's Stagger Lee ode, ingeniously melded with a richly complex male quartet, deserve mention.

Sid Smith

Barrington Hinds burst across the stage from an opening trio, using the angles of his limbs and powerful muscles to counter the pale, throbbing gray of the surrounding “architecture.”

Martha Sherman

Barrington Hinds finds something in his opening solo; again the Petronio forge is working, creating a finished dancer from a giant hunk of raw metal.

Quinn Batson

It was one of those moments you almost jump out of your seat, when Hinds throws Mackessy around his torso and catches her by a leg.

Liam Burke

Hinds moves more cleanly than dancers a head shorter than he is, making huge movements look effortless, pretty unusual for someone near six feet tall.

A catch-and-throw, slash-and-burn, give-as-good-as-you-get duet for Barrington Hinds and Natalie Mackessy is thrilling to watch, but a predictable response to the violence of lyrics and sound in “Stagger Lee.”
