Summary
Mikhail Baryshnikov and White Oak Dance Project perform Past Forward, a retrospective and celebration of Judson Dance. Live works alternate with video sequences created by Charles Atlas. Most works are bracketed with a quick description by its choreographer. Public participation is part of the program: local dancers and community members take part in "Scramble". Poor visual quality. Audience members are quite vocal during the last part of "Satisfyin Lover" and the beginning narration of "Flat". While narration and interviews are in English, all slide titles, announcements, and audience commentary is in German.
