      Carrie Rickey Philadelphia Inquirer It's a rare window on an artistic collaboration. Rated: 3/4 Oct 31, 2002 Full Review Christine Temin Boston Globe Rehearsals are frequently more fascinating than the results. Last Dance, whatever its flaws, fulfills one facet of its mission in making me want to find out whether, in this case, that's true. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 23, 2002 Full Review Clive Barnes New York Post Discursive but oddly riveting documentary.
