DEAREST DREAMER
 |
DEAREST DREAMER explores the lives and work of Isadora Duncan and Edward
Gordon Craig, two of the most influential figures in dance and theatre at the dawn of the 20th century.
|
| Duncan was the scandalous American pioneer of
"free dance," defiant of both social and balletic conventions. The impecunious Craig was an influential stage designer and, for a time, her
kindred spirit. Their love letters, memoirs, and manifestos are woven together with movement, music, and innovative staging techniques rooted in
the theatrical visions of these two fascinating artists. |
DEAREST DREAMER
"A full house sat enthralled. The audience seemed to move only forward,
intent on catching every nuance of movement and syllable of dialogue.
Passion is the theme, the actors' words the tools to advance it. High drama
rules."
