Vertigo's work is thankfully hard-edged for a company whose leaders talk of consciousness, Kabbalah, and the like.  I guess you can't help but be hard-edged if you're coming out of the great (hard-edged) tradition of Israeli modern dance.  It doesn't hurt that the couple that runs this company are really smart, while their dances are really physical.  It also doesn't hurt that they always get great dancers.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  I almost did a dance of joy myself when I heard that aCentral Asian restaurant was opening near the Baryshnikov Arts Center.  The only reason I didn't actually do one when I tried some excellent grilled meats, stews, and dumplings at Farida was that the tiny dining room was too tightly packed with other, equally happy diners.
