...LUCIA CAPRON...
...Erick Hawkins Dance Company is the current forum for the abstract, avantgarde, and sometimes uneven work of a former husband and partner of Martha Graham. Hawkins regularly choreographs his works before his long-time collaborator, Composer Lucia Dlugoszewski, writes the music. This rather strange reversal of step and beat, not to mention cart and horse, too often showed in what might have been called the super-calisthenicization of his choreography. Yet Hawkins frequently attained a timeless mood in such Oriental-flavored works as Dawn Dazzled Door. The psuedo-Apollonian Angels of the Inmost Heaven featured a quartet of beauties...

Lee Richardson's Undershaft is best of all-forceful and unshakeable from start to finish. (And he really plays the prescribed tune from Doninetti's Lucia on a trombone). Lady Brit is his separated wife, a woman given to bossing and tossing off epigrams--clearly modeled on Lady Bracknell in Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, written a decade earlier. Jan Miner, in a performance that brings to mind Jessica Tandy, is doing in this role far and away...
