The company has been toiling with Brew on “Full of Words,” which is shaping up as a 25-minute dance (David Dorfman’s rigorous 2009 gem “Light Shelter,” a piece that premiered as part of the company’s 20th season, and AXIS dancer/choreographer Sebastian Grubb’s impressive “The Narrowing” are also on the program).
