Mass. native choreographer
premiers new work at Jacob's Pillow
by J.A. Lopata
“Are you the homo, hetero or lesbo couple?” joke dancers from
the Seán Curran Company of modern dance. “I’m very interested in
partnering,” Curran says. “It is very important for me that we
respect all of the variations.” And same-sex partnering is not

fond of quoting choreography mentors Bill T. Jones and Arnie
Zane, saying, “All art is political, even what you choose to
omit is political.”
