DESCRIPTION:Jun 26-28\, 2026\nLucinda Childs tends to use commonplaces for 
 titles that\, in the context of the mute\, pristinely geometrical dances t
 hey name\, work themselves loose from their conventional meanings to becom
 e strange. To take some examples from this Bard Summerscape outing\, there
 ’s Relative Calm\, when\, as an experience and a quality\, calm is an ab
 solute. Or Available Light—a redundancy\, as light always avails itself\
 , whether or not an object obstructs its way to us. As for Momentary Repri
 se—this selection of new\, old\, and reimagined works—you’re likely 
 to misread “reprise” as the typical “reprieve.” But both are true.
  Every return of the renowned 86 year old to the stage is momentous\, beca
 use there are only so many left—each a reprieve from the final curtain. 
 In the tribute that the program pays to a lifetime of close collaborations
 —with Frank Gehry and Robert Wilson\, who both died last year\; with Phi
 lip Glass and even with Childs’ own earlier self\, to whom she returns i
 n a 1965 solo she will dance\, reimagined for the digital age—Momentary 
 Reprise doubles down on this theme of finitude. But the dances themselves 
 proceed like their slippery titles. Like a limb rousing from sleep\, they 
 tingle with suppressed life.
