Sumario:Looks inside four of Doris Humphrey's major choreographic works--Water study (1928), The Shakers (1931), With my red fires (1936), and Passacaglia (1938)--with an eye to how directorial strategies applied in recent contemporized stagings in the United States and Europe could work across the modern and contemporary dance genre.
