Driving for an hour north on 75 toward Detroit, on a snowy Sunday afternoon, makes you wonder—is it really worth it? Accidents on the roads, aggressive drivers, unpredictable potholes (all familiar sights to everyone in the area), just to see a dance performance in a sleek environment that seemed to be (twi)light years away from the present weather conditions. (I want to imagine that Twyla Tharp would have loved this pun!) She was not present at the Detroit Opera Theatre on February 2, but her company was. Tharp’s choreographies feature often in Detroit’s productions, but, as I found out, this was only the second ever appearance of Twyla Tharp Dance in Detroit. Yes, the horrendous drive was totally worth it.
