The Curtain

The dancers practice "the curtain." In this segment, foot work is critical. The dancers must step on sensors in order to control the lighting. Jacques critiques their work. The dancers must dance with vigor. They need to stop after each rotation and their feet need to conform to an imaginary line on the floor.
