...music; they devote their time and salaries to Beatle trivia. Jeff Symes is a pious Beatle person. He claims everything reminds him of The Beatles: He can't look at breakfast without remembering that the original title of "Yesterday" was "Scrambled Eggs." "My room is four walls of inch to inch Beatles. My Mom won't let me put things on the ceiling yet. Someday, I'll put it all in a museum...

Al though the form is that of classical dance, the positions are not. They are an exploration of every inch of space on the stage and around the dancers themselves. Haydée oozes elegantly across the floor on her bottom like a geometric snake, slithering effortlessly upward, feet first and legs spread, over Cragun's waiting shoulders. Tetley amazingly seems to have taught his dancers how to bow their hips into trompe...
