DANCE REVIEW: ‘SMASHED2’ by Gandini Juggling at PS21
The Center for Contemporary Performance, or “PS21,” as it is known, is in Chatham, N.Y., just over the Massachusetts border and a reasonable drive from pretty much anywhere in Berkshire County.

Judging by the vision, energy, and drive of the organization, however, and its desire to truly be contemporary, innovative, and accessible and affordable to all, I am quite confident in the coming years PS21 will be spoken of in the same breath as these other venerable performing-arts institutions in the Berkshires.
