The dancer is never asked about...
how many baths we take.
health insurance costs.
intellect...
or mathematics.
The dancer is never asked about...
physical limitations.
survival.
pain.
The dancer is never asked about...
childhood.
high school.
raising kids.
home.
The dancer is never asked about...
climate change.
sexuality.
race.
The dancer is never asked about...
ownership of work.
The dancer is never asked,
but we will ask
these and many other things we believe
the dancer can and will talk about.
Dancer’s Turn promotes a holistic view of dance artists as whole, thoughtful and active persons in relationship to the world and their communities. We publish longform profiles of artists, offering the world-at-large an accessible, powerful insight into the world of dance, one artist at a time. Dancer's Turn was created by Eva Yaa Asantewaa and some of the students from her 2013 Writing on Dance program at New York Live Arts.
this is really phenomenal poetry about dancing turn. it shows how we learn this art with smooth way too.
