Do not call me a dancer
Isadora Duncan (San Francisco, 1877 – Nice, 1927) is remembered for her light dances, tunics and bare feet.
Almost a hundred years after that iconic scarf which cost her life, getting stuck between the wheels of the car, the timeless legacy of a woman who changed the history of dance is entrusted to a choreographer Gemini Venus in Gemini – like her – and four gen z dancers.
The group encountered archive material, written and danced. A song, a letter and a t-shirt land to the audience: 50% fan club 15% homage 5% glitter 30% “why are we still talking about dance history?”
