- Summary
- Unedited performance video featuring the dancer, choreographer, and actor Bertram Ross. Forced by unexpected weather conditions to perform indoors, he presents a spontaneous adaptation of his one-person show, which was originally planned for a larger outdoor space. In the show, which he conceived, choreographed, and performs, he portrays [Edward] Gordon Craig, an early 20th-century theater revolutionary who was Isadora Duncan's lover, and Raymond Duncan, Isadora's brother. The performance is followed by a discussion with the audience.
