Lucinda Childs on the Dance of Everyday Life

On Ep. 147 of our Time Sensitive podcast—our Season 13 opener—the choreographer and dancer discusses her rigorous approach to movement; revisits her early works from the 1960s and ’70s, soon to be restaged at the Guggenheim, which emerged out of New York City’s Judson Dance Theater; and reflects on decades of experimental collaboration with Philip Glass and the late Robert Wilson.
