Description |
Mikhail Baryshnikov and a five-woman troupe will perform in modern dance that promises, in the true White Oak tradition, to be both provocative and entertaining. The week one program consists of Mark Morris's dark, sleek ''Argument,'' Neil Greenberg's lighthearted and loving ''MacGuffin or How Meanings Get Lost (Revisited) and works by Amy O'Brien and Lucy Guerin.'' |
