Notes: This performance is the product of a four-week residency by Kathleen Quinlan. In conjunction with the performance, our course in Dance History, COTH 321, has focused upon the art and life of Duncan and her great contemporary, Sergei Diaghilev. Of special significance to the production is the setting, based on the revolutionary design concepts of Edward Gordon Craig (1872-1966). Craig and Duncan had an enormous personal and artistic influence upon each other. Although they never actually collaborated together on a production, they often spoke of such a venture. Our production unites their work for the first time.
