DAVID DORFMAN DANCE at Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston

Five members of David Dorfman Dance dressed in black, green, and grey hold their hands together in a circle with their backs facing each other.
Dancers stand on top of each others back and rush towards one another, as another dance squats in the middle between the rushing groups.
A dancer slides on the floor on their knees, another dancer sits in the background.

David Dorfman Dance’s truce songs explores how our world might look, and how we might feel, if traditional truces were extended by a day, then a month, then years—ending one small war on humanity at a time. DDD’s trademark risky, frisky, and vulnerable movement, accompanied by an original score by Lizzy de Lise and Sam Crawford alongside text developed by Dorfman and the company embodies truce with self, with others, and with the world, as dancing bodies serve as conduits for a momentary peace.
