Here is an assemblage of mystories, I-stories, and we-stories focusing (fuzzily) on the contribution that dance-stories could or might make to critical qualitative inquiry. This ensemble of fragments, collected or made-up bits and pieces, challenges us as academics or general readers to figure out what the performances of dancing human (or even posthuman) bodies could or might tell us.
