2 tickets to Dark Matters, a Kidd Pivot dance company production at the Walker on Thursday, October 14, 2010. This stunning theatrical hybrid of puppetry and dance opens as a sinister fable in which an artist creates a puppet with fateful results and culminates in electrifying contemporary ballet. Crystal Pite's choreographic language-edgy, gorgeously fluid-shows the influence of years dancing with William Forsythe's Ballet Frankfurt, but is seasoned with her own humor, intelligence, and intensity.
