Five dancers reveal simultaneously and singularly an energetic landscape, a charged terrain of options. “Violet” is a steep descent into a maelstrom, a swirl of energetic patterns and kinetic sculptures full of detail, partnered live on stage by musician Brendan Dougherty on electronics and percussion.
