DESCRIPTION:Jun 30 - Jul 1\, 2026\nA Tere O’Connor show is always an even
 t. But it’s been a while\, and this year the program has taken an unprec
 edented retrospective turn. Along with a six-person premiere\, The Lace\, 
 which brings O’Connor veterans together with those new to his tight-knit
  tribe\, the 60something choreographer is remounting his very first dance.
  This 1984 solo\, Construct-a-Guy\, premiered at downtown New York’s now
 -legendary annual Fresh Tracks talent night\, where the likes of Mark Morr
 is\, Bill T. Jones\, and Susan Marshall first came to light. Did baby O’
 Connor have a genius even then for freighting a dance’s construction wit
 h emotional weight? Against the gravity of its elusive shape\, the abundan
 ce of steps—and gestures transmuted into steps—transform the highly in
 dividual dancers into characters. The ensemble delicately contains their m
 yriad differences.
