At The Fire Island Dance Festival this year Al Blackstone Choreography choreographed a sexy and darkly comedic piece set to Prince‘s “How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore.” When the object of American Ballet Theatre‘s principal dancer James Whiteside’s affection ignores his advances, he rhythmically and methodically eliminates the five men who stand in his path as distractions.
Fire Island Dance is an annual event organized by Dancers Responding to AIDS which is a fundraising program of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. DRA is the ongoing committed response from the American dance community to an urgent worldwide health crisis.
