...Hung-Up, Freaked-Out and Put-Down. Ann Halprin, 47, wife of San Francisco Architect Lawrence Halprin, is a Hung-Up who likes to hang up her dance-workshop students on a cargo net and, shifting their positions in the webbing, stage a kind of spider-and-fly routine. Erick Hawkins, 54, Graham's former husband, is a Freaked-Out who finds Method in the madness of portraying such things as a pine tree and a shy squash.

...rest of the program was for the most part undistinguished. Erick Hawkins' "Early Floating"--an "exploration in the pure fact of movement," choreographed in silence--was merely a study and an exercise. As someone has so clearly said of nouelle vague films, why is it that these things are never too short? The patterns of bone and muscle in the dancers' bare legs were the most interesting part of the composition.
