I just watched an unforgettable music video with an amazing
dance/theatre performance by Perlan Theatre Group. My husband, a
composer/musician, has been a fan of the Icelandic band Sigur Ros for
several years now; he directed me to this YouTube video of one of their
songs, the link to which I am attaching below. The video is stunning as
a dance/theatre and cinematic piece, but dance therapists will, I'm
sure, have a specific appreciation for it. I had many thoughts as I
watched it; I would be interested to know what others think.

FYI: According to the Sigur Ros website, Perlan ("The Pearl") Theatre
Group is an extra-ordinary drama and dance performance group comprised
of 14 Icelanders aged 21-48 with particular development disabilities
(Down's Syndrome). Since their debut in 1982 the group has travelled
the world, performing to a huge variety of audiences on an almost
continuous basis.
