...March 17 performance, the company looked the most stylistically comfortable and vehemently committed in Jorma Elo’s “Plan to B.” Lit by a large side panel of bright white and set to rather restrained 17th-century violin music by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber, the movement is rigorously athletic and ultra-contemporary, with flamboyant leaps that corkscrew in the air and hyperextended limbs thrown in all directions.

...Franz says that she is, of course, in favor of both parents' taking responsibility for a child, an impulse that she says legal abortion has undermined.

"Just to create awareness would be enough, to at least get a debate started...

...peace and quiet, visit the ivy-clad New Jewish Cemetery, 1 Israelska, where Franz Kafka rests. The beautifully sculpted tombstones in this 115-year-old graveyard function as a sort of outdoor gallery of 20th century artistic styles...
