...sure, a few contemporary dance directors are doing compelling work. Rob Marshall's sardonic numbers in Cabaret are proof of that. But far more revealing was the failure of the latest revival of On the Town, which closed this week after just 65 performances. It says everything about the current state of dance on Broadway that one of the great dance shows of the '40s (and, ironically, Robbins' very first musical) should be sunk a half-century later by the lackluster choreography of Broadway neophyte Keith Young.
