For this piece the performer was to construct multiple texts that were developed using public transportation as a structure for constraint. Dance with Yourself is inspired from the temporal, physical, and social constraints of Chicago's Red-line train.
Five individuals wait for the train. They each, in turn, board the train, express their distaste for public transportation and then gets off. Each individual has a different rhythm to their life (jazz, techno, classical, Latin, public radio) and the spirits of all but one dance on, free from the obsession of progress that inflicts us all.
