A spokesperson describes the event as follows:

“...The Limón Dance Company celebrates its 78th season highlighting the formative experiences that shaped its founder’s approach to humanistic storytelling. Embodying the excellence of early modern dance, the program opens with Doris Humphrey’s captivating solo, Two Ecstatic Themes, followed by Limón's masterful retelling of Gethsemane in The Traitor.
