  • Odc Theater Presents Sara Shelton Mann in the World Premiere of Echo / Riding the Rapids
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: John Hill [email protected] 510.435.7128 ODC THEATER PRESENTS SARA SHELTON MANN IN THE WORLD PREMIERE OF ECHO / RIDING THE RAPIDS October 11 - 13, 2018 Jesse Zaritt photographed by Robbie Sweeny. www.odc.dance SAN FRANCISCO, CA, August 27, 2018 – ODC Theater is proud to present Sara Shelton Mann in the world premiere of ECHO / RIDING THE RAPIDS, an evening-length investigation into the world of sound, October 11 – 13. A towering figure on the Bay Area’s interdisciplinary performance scene since the 1980s, Mann developed ECHO in collaboration with Anya Cloud, Jesse Zaritt and composer Pamela Z, with additional performances by Abby Crain and Jesse Hewit. ECHO runs Thursday to Saturday at 8 p.m. Tickets are $30, and may be purchased online at odc.dance/tickets or by phone at 415-863-9834. A protégé of Alwin Nikolais and Murray Louis in New York City, Mann began work as a choreographer, performer and teacher in 1967. She moved to San Francisco in 1979, and within a few years launched Contraband, a performance group that became legendary for its groundbreaking work combining principles of contact improvisation, systems of the body and spiritual practice into a unified system of research. Since then she’s earned a raft of awards and honors including a Guggenheim Fellowship, seven Izzie Dance Awards and a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Award, among many others. Mann’s work on ECHO began in early 2018 as a conversation with Jesse Zaritt, a Brooklyn-based dance artist who has performed with Shen Wei Dance Arts Company, Inbal Pinto Dance Company, as well as Netta Yerushalmy and Faye Driscoll.

  • Paper 7 Modern Dance and Its Development In
    PAPER 7 MODERN DANCE AND ITS DEVELOPMENT IN THE WORLD AFTER 1960 (USA, EUROPE, SEA) MODERN EXPERIMENTS IN INDIAN CLASSICAL DANCE, NEW WAVE AFTER 1930, UDAYSHANKAR AND LATER CONTEMPORARY, CREATIVE ARTISTS MODULE 16 MODERN DANCE IN GERMANY AND FRANCE According to historians, modern dance has two main birthplaces: Europe (Germany specifically) and the United States of America. Although it evolves as a concert dance form, it has no direct roots in any ballet companies, schools, or artists. Germany is the birthplace of modern dance, theatre realism, and both dance and theatre production dramaturgy. The country’s history is interwoven with its dance, music, art, literature, architecture, religion, and history. In addition to the direct dance training and rehearsals, students will see performances and visit museums and other cultural sites in one of Europe’s most exciting capitals. Contemporary dance in Germany is characterized by a vibrant globalization and combines elements from drama, performance and musical theatre. It is the story of three passionate choreographers and their colleagues who created European modern dance in the 20th century despite the storms of war and oppression. It begins with Rudolph Laban, innovator and guiding force, and continues with the careers of his two most gifted and influential students, Mary Wigman and 1 Kurt Jooss. Included are others who made significant contributions: Hanya Holm, Sigurd Leeder, Gret Palucca, Berthe Trumpy, Vera Skoronel, Yvonne Georgi and Harold Kreutzberg. The German strain of contemporary dance as it has manifested itself in the United States is usually overlooked if not unacknowledged. There is general agreement that modern dance, a 20th-century phenomenon, has been dominated by Americans.

    SPECIAL COLLECTIONS AND ARCHIVES Doris Humphrey Collection, 1915-2008, Part II An Inventory (In Process) Creator: Nicolas, Minos G. Title: Doris Humphrey Collection, 1915-2008, Part II Dates: 1915-2008 Abstract: Notes, correspondence, sheet music, videos, photographs, and other materials related to Minos G. Nicolas’s work in modern dance, particularly in restaging works by Doris Humphrey and other modern dance pioneers. Extent: 17.6 linear feet Language: Predominantly English, with some documents in German and Greek. Repository: Goucher College Special Collections and Archives Call #: MS 0043 Biographical Sketch A modern dance director, choreographer, and performer, Minos (“Mino”) George Nicolas was born on October 22, 1955. He is especially well-known for his work in restaging the dances of Doris Humphrey (1895-1958). A graduate of Towson State University, Nicolas earned his bachelor’s degree in psychology but took several dance classes at Towson and Goucher as well. Through this, he developed a strong interest in modern dance. In 1975, he founded the American Dance Heritage Company, which focused on staging early twentieth-century works by modern dance pioneers such as Isadora Duncan, Ruth St. Denis, Ted Shawn, and Doris Humphrey. He also choreographed original works and won the 1976 New York Creative Choreographers Competition. Throughout his career, Nicolas has focused on modern dance repertory with roles in numerous dance companies. Most notably, he directed the Philadelphia Dance Theatre (later called the American Repertory Dance Theatre) in the late 1980s and the Doris Humphrey Repertory Company in the mid-1990s. With the latter, he was actively involved in the 1995 Doris Humphrey Centennial Celebration.

As a professional ballet and contemporary dancer, yoga was a natural transition for her. It strengthened the awareness she had of her own body and fuelled her fascination with the physical body and the study of movement. Having worked for fifteen years in the luxury industry as a Fashion designer, Simona’s yoga practice helped her to maintain balance within a highly stressful and fast paced lifestyle. The profound physical, mental, and emotional effects this had on her left her curious and keen to find out more. This led Simona to embrace the journey of teaching in order to be able to share her knowledge with others.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
