Iron Man hits the dance floor
This story about a modern dance troop reveals that when Iron Man isn't saving the world from itself with his fellow Illuminati members or drinking away his problems, he likes to cut a rug:
The two pieces from current repertory are Iron Man Meets Scuttle and Static and Slow Run Back. Iron Man was choreographed to music by the Bad Plus, with Iron Man himself based on the Marvel Comics character. As seen last fall, Iron Man is all braggadocio and brawn until the irritating Scuttle and the intriguing Static throw him off-kilter. He swings out a few kung-fu kicks and tries a headlock on Scuttle, but he is eventually robbed of his belt, which gives him strength. He lies, powerless, until Static takes pity on him and gives it back.
If modern dance always featured comic book characters going "kung fu" on each other, I bet they'd sell out every night.
