TRANSMISSIONS IN DANCE GEBUNDEN

This book is a collection of essays that capture the artistic voices at play during a staging
process. Situating familiar practices such as reimagining  reenactment and recreation alongside
the related and often intersecting processes of transmission  translation and transformation 
it features deep insights into selected dances from directors  performers  and close associates
of choreographers. The breadth of practice on offer illustrates the capacity of dance as a
medium to adapt successfully to diverse approaches and  further  that there is a growing
appetite amongst audiences for seeing dances from the near and far past. This study spans a
century  from Rudolf Laban's Dancing Drumstick (1913) to Robert Cohan's Sigh (2015)  and
examines works by Mary Wigman  Madge Atkinson (Natural Movement)  Doris Humphrey  Martha Graham
Yvonne Rainer and Rosemary Butcher  an eclectic mix that crosses time and borders.
