From the New York Times:<P><B>Hairstyles and Other Traumas, in Motion</B><P>By ANNA KISSELGOFF<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Evening Stars OnStage," the series of free outdoor performances at the World Trade Center plaza, drew a packed crowd on Thursday night with two experimental and street- smart dance companies: Rennie Harris Puremovement and Urban Bush Women, directed by Jawole Willa Jo Zollar. <P>Both focused on growing up black in the United States, avoiding clichés by turning clichés in on themselves. To ignore the social protest in each group would be to misread its essence. In this sense, they differ from most of the other companies performing nightly at 7, through Sept. 16.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P><A HREF="http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/10/arts/dance/10HARR.html" TARGET=_blank><B>MORE...</B></A><BR> <BR>
