Jugo de Limón by Lazaro Godoy

To succeed, a work of solo dance has move the audience on many levels. We have to be awed by the capabilities of the dancer’s body, touched by the emotions the work conveys, and challenged by the intellectual puzzle the choreographer has given us to solve as we interpret the dance. Lazaro Godoy’s Jugo de Limón works on all of these levels. Godoy is a brilliant dancer with superb control, and he has created a dance that speaks to us about control: the dancer’s control over his body, the choreographer’s control over his material. This is a piece in which freedom of movement, free will, and emotional freedom are all put to the test. Is the dancer free? Are we? That’s a question we in the audience have to answer for ourselves...
