Dance review: Pillow Project shows great vision

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: It's been a long and winding road on Pearlann Porter's latest choreographic journey to search for a singular jazz improvisational style, one that is nearing a decade of invention.

But Ms. Porter always had a big vision. The official beginning of The Pillow Project, the result of Ms. Porter's ultra-imaginative idea way of dreaming on her personal pillow, started in 2004 at Attack Theatre's old haunts in Garfield, where 20-plus Point Park University students followed her lead in a program that, at the last minute, turned into a double performance due to audience demand.
