SACO — Collective Motion presents the premiere of a new piece of contemporary dance, “been Here before,” at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at Thornton Academy’s Harry P. Garland Auditorium.
The show offers an evening-length work that addresses themes of environmental destruction, political power plays and interpersonal warfare. Each section, ranging from the humorous to the serious, represents an independent emotion, era or situation. Taken together, “been Here before” acts as a metaphorical mirror to society’s inability to break its own self-destructive patterns.
