FIFTY CONTEMPORARY
CHOREOGRAPHERS
Fifty Contemporary Choreographers is a unique and authoritative guide to the lives and
work of today’s most prominent choreographers. Those included represent a wide range
of dance genres, from ballet to postmodern. Among those whose work is discussed are
Matthew Bourne, William Forsythe, Mark Morris and Twyla Tharp. The book locates
each choreographer’s style in the context of contemporary dance theatre, and shows its
influence upon modern dance. Each entry includes:
• a critical essay
• a short biography
• a list of choreographic works
• a detailed bibliography
An introduction by Deborah Jowitt of The Village Voice provides a superb overview of
the world of modern dance, making this an invaluable reference source for all students
and critics, dancers and general readers.
Martha Bremser is a freelance editor and writer, and edited the much praised
International Dictionary of Ballet (St James Press, 1993).
