Hubbard Street Dance Chicago presents an ambitious program of works by innovative European artists, including their own resident choreographer Alejandro Cerrudo. Spaniard Nacho Duato's Arcangelo examines the Baroque idea of Heaven and Hell, while Cerrudo presents his dances Deep Down Dos and Blanco. The evening also features a challenging work by Jiří Kylián that explores his obsession with time, with motion and spoken word moving both forward and backward, said to leave viewers in awe and disbelief.

Astonishing performances, Beautiful choreography. But ultimately too much sameness and became boring and too long. The last performance was a puzzle to me and everyone with me.

With more of a contemporary ballet feel than the "modern dance" I was expecting, I enjoyed the luscious dancing and the opportunity to see the choreography of a true trailblazer, Jiri Kylian, whose piece was provocative on many levels, and thoroughly engaging to all the senses. (Note: his choreography is not in the reps of lots of non Nederlands Dans Theater companies)
