Waxing Moon (2014)
Hubbard Street Dance Chicago

Robyn Mineko Williams applies a desaturated, minimalist aesthetic to her fourth creation for Hubbard Street’s main company, and third collaboration with Chicago composer Robert F. Haynes and fashion designer Hogan McLaughlin. As its title suggests, Waxing Moon contemplates the process of becoming; its protagonist considers possibilities for his future through engagement with two forces we see as figures.
