Review of the IIT & Hubbard Street Dance Collaboration

Following up on another story from the start of the week, the Chicago Tribune has finally gotten back to us about the biggest “dancing about architecture” story this side of the Great Lakes: a review of the Hubbard Street Dance and Illinois Institute of Technology collaboration in Mies van der Rohe‘s Crown Hall. Turns out, according to the Tribune, it was a nice idea, but one that didn’t land so hot. In the end, the staging was rough, moving the audience was difficult and even the music was received poorly.
