Suzana Stankovic has a lithe, strong, sinuous body exquisite in several forms -- ballet, modern, jazz -but her innovative dance storytelling is unique. She creates mood and atmosphere with her taut, muscular, very feminine dance and acting, all with sexual overtones.
Her recent show, Predestined, included a couple of tangents: a very funny chubby Richard "Bumper" Walker dancing a "Dance of the Wild Faeries," and the uncouth, very strong (and funny) standup comic Rocco Chierichella in an amusing section of commentary. An eclectic but entertaining evening, with the dance creations by Stankovic aided and abetted by the strong and agile Philip Lakin, Eric Berthoud and Alex Montaldo, the high points.
