Description "Karen Pearlman (USA) and Richard Allen (AUS) are part of a new generation of American dance, a new phase of the post-modern movement. Their style is vigorous, athletic and allusive, emphasising precision and technique but performed with energy and passion, sometimes violence.

Life at the centre of the world and the end of history is evoked in a language of irony punctuated by moments of lyricism and brutality".
