Jones/Arnie Zane performance: the first set of dancers were perhaps the most interesting to me, because they seem to be caught in a scene from an asylum: sand on the floor, cavorting between large metal bookcases, spasmodic action, shaking, flailing and falling, dresses flying up overhead to reveal underwear, then being drug by their feet to another area, to be piled up on each other in a sleeping heap.
