BWW Reviews: Martita Goshen's TURNING HOME Is No False Start
A step onto the stage, and the winds of our ancestors and the spirits of the racehorse seem
to jostle through the skirts and hair of Martita Goshen. Each hand gesture, every head flit
conjures up memories of native dances and old forgotten connections between horse and
man. This is Martita Goshen's Earthworks' performance of "Turning Home," a tribute to
American thoroughbred racehorses.
