Dance & Politics: Following 9/11, Bill T. Jones predicted that choreographers would now embrace politics and create “works with a public voice” able to act “as a service of social change.” In this class, we will sample theories about the artist’s role in society and explore methods of making dances that could speak with “a louder public voice.” Come ready to discuss and to move.
