...Beyond her absolute reliance on dubious data, Basham’s argument obfuscates the socioeconomic structures that render her step by step plan unfeasible for the bulk of American families. When Basham alludes to a “group of mothers,” she would be more truthful to reference a “group of white upper middle class mothers with equally well-to-do husbands.” Indeed, the women that Basham upholds as paradigms of her “career partner” include the wife of the founder of Amazon.com and the wife...

The skin-tight, pink-toned boxers that the six men wear and the similarly colored leotards for the ballerinas harmonize with the soft lighting to render them all naked. Though the elaborate swordplay with which “Petite Mort” starts later seems incongruous, it charges the piece with aggression from the very first slash. The sexual tension continues to grow through the way in which male and female dancers weave their bodies together...
