But that's why it is. One thing Morris does want you to see is that dance is an intensely visual form of theater. In fact, at one point, the dancers literally freeze, emphasizing the visual element of the dance. My favorite part in that dance is where nobody moves for way too long. And then when they start dancing again, it makes it fuller.
Dancing is absolutely a visual art.
It's not just how you feel or what you look like moving, it's also where you are in depth. To make all this happen, Morris works with the 18 dancers in his group. June Omura and David Leventhal say Morris makes demands both physical and mental. I find all of Mark's works I've done extremely difficult. There's both a muscular and a musical and an intellectual challenge that is surprising.
