Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company at the Institute for Contemporary Art

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13 - SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16
Unless we're talking The Nutcracker, it isn't easy to describe an upcoming dance performance without delving into too-technical boringness or dry observations about costuming and musical selections. Throw in the contemporary-dance factor and we're completely at a loss for words. So suffice it to say that you'll be entertained by the Boston premiere of Chapel/Chapter, being staged by the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company at the Institute for Contemporary Art (100 Northern Avenue, Boston, 617.478.3100). Critics use words like "riveting" and "visceral" to describe the show; in short, it's simply worth watching. Performances are on February 13 and 14 at 7 p.m., and on February 15 and 16 at 8 p.m. For tickets ($50; $40/seniors and students), visit www.icaboston.org or call 617.478.3103.
