Weare returns to Bates with two new works. "Dark Lark" honors the erotic imagination as a metaphor for creativity; and "Marksman" mines a connection between bodies that is emotionally resonant. A talkback with the artists follows both concerts. An Inside Dance lecture with dance writer Debra Cash precedes Saturday's performance at 7pm. $25 general public / $18 seniors / $12 students, available at batesdancefestival.org.
