Bookended by solos performed by choreographer Stacey Printz, "Hover Space" comes in 12 segments in which the dancers work - often in pairs - on, under and around the platform, which not only rises and lowers to reshape the theatrical space but also dips at steep angles to form a surface for the performers to scale, or slide along.
