The Dance Complex

Performance explores the current struggle over women’s physical autonomy through original choreography & reimagined works by Isadora Duncan.

About the performance:My Body, My Dance: Reimagining Duncan for the 21st Century explores the current struggle over women’s physical autonomy through original choreography, paired with reimagined works by modern dance pioneer Isadora Duncan. Duncan, a ground-breaking feminist, espoused freeing the body from physical and social constraints, a subject as relevant today as it was a hundred years ago. The artists employ beauty, humor, and defiance to examine this urgent issue from a variety of perspectives.

About the artists:The New Duncan Dance Project is a collaboration between Boston dance artists Kelli Edwards and Sandra Zarotney Keldsen that explores the work of modern dance pioneer and feminist Isadora Duncan, bringing her work into the 21st century. ​ NDDP restages the work of Isadora Duncan, sometimes preserving the work historically while at other times reimagining the work, and creates new work that not only explores the movement tradition of Duncan, but also carries on the ideas of bodily freedom and autonomy. Embodying five generations of the Duncan legacy, members of the group have studied with Duncan master teachers, Julia Levien, Sylvia Gold, Gemze de Lappe, Catherine Gallant and Patricia Adams.
