   After the tour that brought his celebrated company to BAM in 2002, 
French-Algerian choreographer Angelin Preljocaj took a much deserved year 
off to travel. It was during this time, high on the thin air of Mount 
Kilimanjaro, that Preljocaj conceived of Near Life Experience, a series of 
dances that suggest the edge of consciousness. Set to an original score by 
French electronic duo Air, the hypnotic pieces form a dreamy, 80-minute 
journey. While the show isn't as daring or powerful as their past work, it 
retains the heady ideas, sensual choreography, and striking stage imagery 
that have become a Ballet Preljocaj trademark. (CEH)
