Rage is about the turbulent emotions of an abusive relationship. Originally composed as a pas de deux for two dancers, it is an impassioned cry against violence. It portrays a couple imprisoned in a vicious cycle of domination and abuse, first looking at the scene from the position of the perpetrator and then from the viewpoint of the abused, the music alternates between these two extremes.
“Intense, thought-provoking, tragic and violent” Erie Dance Review
