Talk | Dance Historian on the Legacy of the Dance of Isadora Duncan (In Person AND Online!)


Lori Belilove, artistic director and founder of the Isadora Duncan Dance Foundation & Company, has worked to pass on Duncan's grace, power, and mastery of weight to future generations. Belilove received direct instruction from Duncan's original troupe of six young dancers, known as her "Isadorables." The group included Anna Duncan, born Anna Denzler, who was one of the most dedicated of the six--she never studied another dance technique, and was called "a key keeper of the flame." In this program, Belilove explores the life story of Anna Duncan through images and rare films, from Anna's early age of five auditioning for Isadora Duncan's school in Grunewald, Germany to her last days as a saleswoman at Saks Fifth Avenue and Brentano's bookstore. The program honors her contribution to the legacy of Isadora Duncan with surprise performances that were Anna's signature.
