reopened with a new cast at Playhouse on the Square offers offbeat entertainment achieves a few moments of greatness and adds another dimension to the developing dance scene But the show which involved Marshall Jacks three other choreographers and members of his new Beale Street Dance Theatre also suffers several problems At Wednesday's preview traces of sloppiness In several group numbers Indicated a need for stronger direction Group kicks leaps and turns could have been better synchronized Four or five of the eight dance pieces are too long Choreographers worked hard to achieve exciting climaxes only to let them languish in anti-cli-mactic endings This 2-hour show could be crisp and punchy at two hours or less The most serious problem however contributes 10 or IS useless minutes to the show It's a taped narrative introducing each number Rather than providing brief interesting tidbits the tape drones on repeating titles and resumes printed in the program Boy is it boring Audiences should be able to read programs and make their own conclusions Choreographers should be proud enough of their work to let it stand alone Moat of all the narrator should take a cue from the show title Several of the eight dance pieces are fun Two are choreographies Act one's closing number Ain't Nothing But A Party Tall best captures the show's spirit It's a tight well-executed celebration performed by the full company under amber lights Praise De which closes act two Is a jumplngly joyous piece in which ecclesiastical figures carry on to the gospel standards Rocka My Soul Elijah Rock and Be There Two Intriguing choreographies focus on West African dance technique and rhythm Staged by Debra Ferguson A Day In a Life is a three-part piece showing how Africans reap Joy from their agrarian life Punctuated by shrill sounds it captures the nature of the continent KakiLamba (Dance of Destiny) seems to be a prayer ritual dance and employs fascinating techniques such as deep back bends and turns by two dancers whose legs are locked John two-part work From the Streets to the Stage needs help The first begins for no apparent reason in a classroom of disobedient students With no help from the otherwise gabby narrator a starkly different part two begins and it's confusing whether From the Streets or another piece Lee staging of Called Psalm "a America is an interesting modern piece that conjures images of sinner and pen-intent Another of her works is set to Send in the 'owns and features the lanky elegant Holly Day Unfortunately this classical ballet
