William Forsythe in conversation with Jennifer Homans
In conjunction with Sider
Choreographer William Forsythe is constantly redefining the boundaries of contemporary dance. His latest work, Sider, is arguably his most daring. In this conversation, Forsythe and Jennifer Homans trace the history of the art form from its roots to the present day.
Choreographer William Forsythe looks to the sumptuous speech rhythms of Elizabethan tragedy in this fascinating work, in which dancers translate a 16th-century text into their own beguiling language.
Members of The Forsythe Company lead this workshop in which dancers develop movement ideas and creative lines of inquiry based on the work and practice of William Forsythe.
