Dance Drama Company performs "PNINA" by Sally Anne Friedland 

The dance piece "PNINA" is formed patch by patch, connected with stitches hardly discernible. PNINA runs 45 minutes without a story line, during which the audience watches three talented dancers. This is a small dance performance - some of its 'patches' are without musical accompaniment, when one can hear the dancers' breaths, moments I found magical. Other parts have music that, at times, guide the movement and, at other times caused me to raise an eyebrow and wonder – what does the choreographer want to say?

When we go to performances, we naturally search for familiar patterns that our linear mind can grab hold of. PNINA is without patterns; it has dance and it has movement. The audience must free its need to follow a plot (as it hasn't any), and to simply sit, watch and enjoy three dancers. If one is truly listening, one may discover or weave, oneself, small stories in the course of the performance.
