On Sunday, we were able to see a dance performance at the Joyce Theater in Manhattan. Thankfully, the weather was not bad when we were traveling to the theater. Most of us took the ferry and the train together, allowing us to arrive at the same time.

I was lucky to have a good seat in the second row. I was towards the center and I could really see the entire stage. Going into this show, I wasn\u2019t sure what to expect. I was a dancer growing up, so I knew I would enjoy the dancing itself but I wasn\u2019t sure of the stories. Personally, I loved the stories portrayed in the performance. Each performance, in my opinion, got better and better. I was a bit confused with the first one, but the story telling got better with each performance.

I enjoyed the second performance because it definitely made me laugh. However, I felt like an outsider laughing in the theater because everyone was so serious. I was even more impressed with the third performance. The dancers had such amazing control over their bodies and they were able to truly show off their talents. The male dancer was super strong, and the female dancer had amazing lines. When watching the performance, I envisioned the dancers as mermaids because of the fact that their movements were so enchanting. I also loved that the female dancer in the third performance was super humble. We were able to speak to her at the end, and she was so appreciative of our complements. Overall, these two performances were great. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite was definitely the last one. Based on their technique, I think that those dancers were more advanced and had more experience. The lead female was incredibly talented. She had amazing lines, she was flexible, and she was incredibly strong. I loved how a big portion of the dance showcased her because she was truly talented. I also really enjoyed seeing all of the solo parts of this dance, including the first male soloist. This dancer was able to go from a jazz turn to a lyrical turn without bobbling which is really impressive. Whether it was in the group or as a soloist, I loved how each dancer was able to move to the beats of the amazing music. It is really hard to work in a group, especially on timing, and I think these dancers nailed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, I really enjoyed this performance and I might even see it again in the future.
