The dance, simple yet revealing, unveils the characters as they dip and sway in and out of their facades - their smiling anger, silent disapproval, glib jokes. There's a little of everyone here at the dance - the insecure, the confident, the desperate, the seeking. And each character mirrors the actions of countless onlookers.
First, there's Brad and Janet, whose performance as a loving couple is motivated solely by Brad's desire to see a jealous fire in Marcie's eyes. There's Howard, the bachelor MC; and Alison, newly divorced. Give Howard a mike and a spotlight, and the world is his stage, but his audience of one is too close to reality. Meanwhile Alison, reaching through her pain, finds another in need. And there's Karen and Neil. Is marriage and life doomed go on for time and all eternity like a broken record, never changing? The dancers argue and resolve, avoid and confront, talk and listen, love and are loved.
