life and art of California Native Daughter and legendary dancer Isadora Duncan. Director, solo dancer and Duncan expert Lois Flood (Diablo Dance Theater) movingly interprets the original choreography of Isadora Duncan and her classical aesthetic dance movement. She brings the ‘Mother of Modern dance’ to dramatic life with flowing classical costumes and historical narration about Isadora’s many contributions as a dancer, writer, political activist and revolutionary feminist.
These lyrical, dramatic and heroic dances, inspired by natural movement, are set to exquisite classical music by Chopin, Schubert, Gluck, and others.
This unique dance performance is also a history lesson about the revolutionary dancer and feminist who boldly rejected the cultural and legal restrictions placed on women in the early 1900’s; a subject still relevant today.
Fine refreshments will be available for sale.
