Line Describing Your Mom

This is the new choreography of devotion, via the vlog of southern nightmares. This is the light that never goes out. This is the line describing your mom.

“… is a work absolutely worthy of its exceptional title. After a few moments watching a dance troupe position themselves in a dragon-like pose, Michael Robinson drops the beat with a fiery explosion and what sounds like a karaoke version of a Gloria Estefan song, leaving behind a throbbing pulse of green light which washes over the audience and helps pull one out from the heavy flicker of the dance troupe. It's a heavily layered, affecting work that recalls that initial moment of irrational fear after waking from a nightmare. It's definitely one of Robinson's best works, unquestionably meant for a large screen, and the festival could have gotten away with running the piece ten times in a row for its opening night.”
