"An eclectic hyperdance...Martens captures the mindset of our hectic age in the shimmering interplay between dance and music.”—De Standaard (Belgium)

See the latest directions in dance when inventive Flemish choreographer Jan Martens brings the US premiere of his new work Rule of Three to the Wex. An untamed meditation in movement and music, Rule of Three is a study in contradictions that—like these times—shifts between stillness and explosion, precision and intuition, emotion and reason. The work’s trio of dancers are propelled by the percussive score of American composer and collaborator NAH, whose music here blends live and programmed drums, found sounds, and treated samples with echoes of rock, hip-hop, and vanguard jazz. The powerful rhythms, surging stage lights, and dynamic movement accumulate and crescendo—then wane and dim down to a rustling murmur.
