Bill T. Jones The dancer the singer the cellist ... and a moment of creative magic

Isadora Duncan –

(Music) –

crazy, long-legged woman
from San Francisco,

got tired of this country,
and she wanted to get out.

Isadora was famous
somewhere around 1908

for putting up a blue curtain,

and she would stand

with her hands over her solar plexus

and she would wait,

and she would wait,

and then, she would move.

(Music)

Josh and I and Somi call this piece

“The Red Circle and the Blue Curtain.”

Red circle.

Blue curtain.

But,

this is not the beginning
of the 20th century.

This is a morning in Vancouver

in 2015.

(Music)

(Singing)

Come on, Josh!

Are we there yet?

Hey, yeah!

What time is it?

(Music)

Where are we?
