| Summary |
The first-ever biography in English of Pina Bausch: perhaps the most influential choreographer of the twentieth century. Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost looks with affection at Bausch and her work, supported by many quotes from Pina herself, the press, her collaborators and her ensemble, Jo Ann Endicott, Lutz FOrster, Dominique Mercy, Thusnelda Mercy and Jean-Laurent Sasportes. As well as detailing her personal life, her choreographies, and her legendary work ethic, it takes stock of Bausch's legacy and the future for the company she created. |
