The two continue to pick up the third and so on. As the music stops, the five pose as a compressed wedge of Spanish soul. What is interesting is seeing the different persona each dancer projects in executing the same action: Elizabeth Garren first, splaying her arms with a measured deadpan delivery; then Wendy Perron, pouting over her twisted hands as she raises them overhead, leaving them crunched over her phooey expression; Trisha Brown next...

For many, the war was good for the soul. In a U.S. economically galvanized by the conflict, it was good for the stomach as well.
