Glacier is a Bessie Awards-nominated dance work [1] by contemporary choreographer Liz Gerring. [2]
The dancers look relaxed and galvanized. They hurl themselves into impetuous slides, skim across the stage in nimble footwork, push their way urgently backward on all fours, shimmer in turning or bobbing jumps — and yet, amid the formal structures, always keep an informal quality, never letting the steps acquire any veneer of academicism... its moods change like the weather, and its ebbs and flows carry aspects of poetry and excitement.
