Jacob's Pillow presents an exclusive theatrical version of filmmaker and photographer David Michalek's Slow Dancing, demonstrating the beauty of dance, dancers, and the body in motion. The dancers' short movement phrases are captured at 1,000 frames per second in hyper-slow-motion video portraits and contrasted with live performances of the portraits, in real time. Jill Johnson of The Forsythe Company (William Forsythe, artistic director), and classical Indian dancer Shantala Shivalingappa are among the artists who appear live and on screen. The program includes lively commentary with David Michalek and the artists on stage. $29 per adult ticket.  Slow Dancing
