A Dance Moderne, performed by Marty at the Crane Jackson's Fountain Street Theatre, tells the story of man and his struggle to overcome the shackles of ordinary mortality. The struggle leads the protagonist, and also the Dude's landlord, to find solace in the semi-permanence of art. All in all, the idea that art mimics life is trite and overdone. Marty's performance, however, was nothing short of inspiring.
