This afternoon we went to Jabob's Pillow to watch Companhia Urbana de Danca. Jacob's Pillow is a dance center, school and performance space in Becket. The organization is known for the oldest internationally acclaimed summer dance festival in the United States. The facility also includes a professional school and extensive archives as well as year-round community programs. The Companhia de Urbana troupe consists of 7 men and 1 woman from the favelas of Brazil. Their performance is a mixture of hip hop and Brazilian dance. They were certainly impressive. Watch a clip of their strength, flexibility and control on Youtube
This evening we ate at Bistro Zinc in Lenox, then returned home for a repeat performance of Friday night. Oy!
