Disturbance is luscious and demanding, unveiling a landscape in transformation. The choreography embodies the nature of the influences that motivates individuals to alter. The disturbances, both positive and negative, by force or by choice, disrupt the self and cause personal change. The piece moves from simplicity to comedy and juxtaposes pedestrian motion, virtuosic shape, twitches, subtle gestures, and shifting groupings of dancers.

Disturbance is performed with 13 dancers. This piece premiered in 2006 at the Ailey Citigroup Theater, NYC.
