That's pretty harsh I think Barry - "sketch"? LOL! It's a different style, yes, but it's fantastic in its own right as interpretive dance performed by a few of the best in the world. It's won, along with Wayne McGregor, a fair number of awards, so I think that it stands on its own. There's room for all kinds of dance - and even from the establishment. We're all opinionated, but that's only my opinion.
