Michael and I will discuss “What we talk about when we talk (and write) about dance,” something we spent five years exploring together (including the pandemic). We’ll chat about process and product, studio culture and serious setbacks. We will talk about the beauty (and dysfunction) of art families, first and found.

Join us as we look at Never Ready and the questions it asks: does thinking about the AIDS epidemic echo the Covid Crisis? How are staff members central to every company’s story? As we examine the “American Genius Myth” are we holding onto it, just a little?

Bring your ideas and your book for signing. Or buy it at this free event—at dance’s most storied dance festival.

Open to all. Location on the ADF campus TBA
