Childs, Lucinda
SOLOS/ FIGURE EIGHTS
NYC: Danspace, n.d. (c. 1977)
20.5 x 16cm, 4pp. Programme for the solo performance by the minimalist dance troupe leader and choreographer Childs - the cover of this small brochure is an uncredited full page drawing / score and internally the performance is noted as consisting of Particular Reel, Cross Words, Mix Detail and Figure Eights. The text thanks Tina Girouard, Richard Landry and Cindy Lubar who, while we have not been able to confirm this as yet, we suspect were involved in backgrounds, staging and music for the event.. Slight creases near edges otherwise VG. These performances immediately preceded the performer's role in the landmark minimalist opera Einstein On The Beach. Childs was a friend of and dance contemporary with Yvonne Rainer and Merce Cunningham.
