Terrific Freight is a spiritual gothic for dance without a discernible ritual. It is a dance of shifting occasions and a performance of countless impressions constructed from a cloudburst of moments. Purposing itself in a realm of personal poetics, Terrific Freight creates an ongoing, fractal worlding that etches itself through what is here/there, what is now/then and all of the threads that go with this place, this time, and these people who suck stones, light fires, and notice that the ice is melting.
