When She Danced
by Martin Sherman

When She Danced

Synopsis

New York's Playwrights Horizons had a success starring Elizabeth Ashley as the legendary Isadora Duncan.

The acclaimed author of Bent brings us Paris 1923, and Duncan's desperate attempts to keep herself financially solvent to realize her dream of retirement: a school in Italy to teach young dancers her art while distracted by her mercurial husband, a poet who only speaks Russian, as well as various acolytes, through whose eyes we glimpse the greatness of Isadora "when she danced."
