This playful works sports a robust movement vocabulary, from everyday movements and facial expressions to rigorous dance sequences. The piece pulls the viewer’s attention into the details of the dancers’ emotions and interactions, similar to the way a camera zooms into a close-up, revealing the interior world of the individual characters. With humor, exuberance, conflict, passion and tenderness, this half-hour dance creates a large canvas on a small stage. 

"Why rent rehearsal space, why bother with a theater, when you can do so much with a platform the size of your bathroom?” 
-New York Times, July 2014
