Jaw Grind
Jaw Grind is a work for 8-9 dancers choreographed by Allison Jones that explores the subject of panic attacks and breakdowns amid a monotonous existence. The dancers teeter on the edge of being “put together” vs. falling apart, wearing high-fashion hairstyles and dramatic false eyelashes juxtaposed with tattered clothes. Simultaneously edgy, energetic, strange and glamorous, Jaw Grind toes a fine line between earnest concert work and dynamic crowd-pleaser.
