People Are Talking: UMS presents Compagnie Non Nova: Prelude to the Afternoon of a Foehn:
I really enjoyed this performance. I always love when Art and Science share the stage. The shadows on the ceiling were so very cool. I do wish it was longer. For me the 25 minutes went by in a blink. I was quite mesmerized.
Personally, the fact that the puppets were torn apart was critical to the piece. To me, that moment represented the lost of innocence that naturally occurs in the cycle of life. And the aftermath showed the beauty that life can still provide once we are ‘torn to shreds” by forces greater than ourselves.

I loved it! That is the happiest music has made me in a long, long time.
