In Chapel/Chapter, Bill T. Jones' choreography scans like a lecture or a sermon; it's dance designed to really convince you of something — or at least get you thinking about it. The three parallel narrative threads concern themselves with murder and inaction in the face of preventable death. A large cast of top-shelf dancers, singers, and musicians explores the stories' every crevice in search of both answers and redemption. Along with the action, Bjorn Amelan's set design does a lot of the heavy lifting, coming alive with symbolically loaded text and images.
