Lar Lubovitch Dance Company
"In all the dancer with whom I work, I look for an intuitive, poetic spark. It's something with which certain dancers automatically imbue their movement. Of course, my work requires extreme technical ability as well. But dance is, as I see it, a form of poetry for which physical prowness is merely a means but surely not an end. Dancers who get stuck emphasizing only the athletic aspect of dance seem to have only one note they strike repeatedly. They appear to be shouting all of the time. it's the difference between yelling and singing. Barton sings. It's a choice." - Lar Lubovitch, Artistic Director, Lar Lubovitch Dance Company
