“Choreographers have long conscripted the written word but none with such inventive irreverence as Daniel Walters. In A Dreamer's Daytime Desire three dancers flip through hardcover books while a fourth drops pages from her cocoon-like shroud. They lift sheets of paper with their teeth and tear them with their toes, providing their own accompaniment as they strut upon the crinkling pages. But JooNDance's appeal does not stop here; a loud boom unites the dancers and they begin to hurl themselves into the ground like suicidal beetles. Books once balanced upon their heads lie in ruins across the stage and the dancer's legs slice like scissors through the air. A series of compelling duets evolves into a chorus of increasingly recognizable words and the work concludes with one dancer pulling herself along a line of pages that crosses the stage.”
