BWW Review: Entity Contemporary Dance Company Weaves Transparent/See Making A Statement About Our Commodity-Driven Culture Through Movement At The Montalban Theatre
by Valerie-Jean Miller - Mar 22, 2019
During the three-day MOVES Dance Festival held at the Montalban Theatre in Hollywood, the hard-working contemporary dance company Entity presented a fascinating work that they based on “The True Cost,” a documentary by Andrew Morgan about the garment and fashion industry and the effects of greed, fear, power and poverty it causes in our world. Through dance and sound, they have constructed a visual imagery of the inner workings of both a “sweatshop” environment, becoming parts of the machinery at times, overworked and working their hands to the bone at a frantic pace, and it then becomes a trying-on party for one very finicky customer, who is meant to signify consumers as a whole.
