My Body, My Dance: Reimagining Duncan for the 21st Century explores the current struggle over women’s physical autonomy through original choreography, paired with reimagined works by modern dance pioneer Isadora Duncan. Duncan, a ground-breaking feminist, espoused freeing the body from physical and social constraints, a subject as relevant today as it was a hundred years ago. The artists employ beauty, humor, and defiance to examine this urgent issue from a variety of perspectives.

This show represents the premiere of the New Duncan Dance Project, a company founded by Boston dance artists Kelli Edwards and Sandra Zarotney Keldsen, formerly of Dances by Isadora Boston. NDDP welcomes collaborators Daniel McCusker and Rose Woods Dance Collaborative who have created new work inspired by Duncan for this performance.
