Neil Greenberg's trilogy: a survivor's tales
Article Abstract:
Choreographer Neil Greenberg produced a trilogy of ballets between 1993 and 1998 that resist simplistic categorization. 'Not-About-AIDS-Dance,' 'The Disco Project,' and 'Part Three' are loosely organized around the theme of how society responds to widespread sickness. Improvisation is a significant element in all these works, as is text projected on an upstage cyclorama.
