The Jacob’s Pillow 2016 season “INSIDE/OUT” featured Emery LeCrone DANCE’s new work “NOW/HERE,” which lent itself beautifully to the unique outdoor setting it was performed at on June 23rd. The breathtaking beauty of the sun shining through the trees, the calm summer breezes, and the scenery of the rolling mountain peaks beyond the elevated stage highlighted LeCrone’s neoclassical choreography. While some dancers entwined themselves in intricate partnering and jaw-dropping lifts, others simply paced around the perimeter of the stage before disappearing down the twin staircases on either side of the venue. Although LeCrone’s innovative choreography would draw attention in any setting, at Jacob’s Pillow her dancers performed with such free-ness and lightness that the program became memorable to even the most seasoned dance aficionados.
