Red








I can't remember the official name of this duet, but it is mesmerizing--dancers are Noelle Lelakus and Christopher Benjamin of the Missouri Contemporary Ballet. It's actually one of their older pieces from last year, choreographed by resident choreographer Shannon West.

If you look at these pictures, it looks like a classical piece but it is actually set to this eerie music by the band St. Vincent (I had never heard of them but that's not saying much), a song called "Your Lips Are Red." Check it out on YouTube, for some reason it won't let me link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XST5L2lO2hQ
