For someone with such a distinctive punk look, Dustin Maxwell has an amazing ability to blend in, to become an integral part of an ensemble. In works such as Christopher Schlichting's "Stripe Tease" and Morgan Thorson's "Still Life," Maxwell brought a special energy to group dynamics, while moving cohesively with the other dancers. Maxwell also shines as a solo performer. His unusually angular physique creates captivating lines, and his nuanced, subtle understanding of movement results in meticulous, enthralling execution.
