The third-generation Duncan dancer Mary Sano, who is one of the world’s foremost interpreters of Duncan choreography, is at the EVC with a group of dancers to develop her latest work entitled _Letters from Isadora_.

The work in creation during the residency, Letters from Isadora was inspired by the book The Art of the Dance, a compilation of essays written by Isadora Duncan on art, poetry, philosophy, and bringing dance into the modern world. This piece strives to honor Isadora’s legacy by allowing each performer the space to express themselves in their truest sense while reflecting and responding to Isadora’s essays on what is dance, what does it bring to our lives, and why its existence is important.  

The work is co-choreographed by Mary Sano with the constant collaboration of the dancers involved in the piece, Alexandra Zeidan, Julie Dubois, and others. The music is a contemporary piano piece specifically composed for this work by Tony Chapman.
