"From the start of "A Quarreling Pair," which opened on Tuesday at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Next Wave Festival, you feel that you have been plunged deep inside a private world. This is partly because its source material, a short puppet play from 1945 by Jane Bowles, depicts a suffocating, insular relationship between two sisters. But it is also because Bill T. Jones, the director and choreographer of this dance-theater adaptation, has lived with the Bowles play for so long -- 15 years -- that it has transformed itself in his mind, becoming a sort of cryptic shorthand for all manner of riffs."
