Judy Syrkin-Nikolau : Interview on the Chocolate Heads Movement Band
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Judy Syrkin-Nikolau, a former researcher in Stanford’s Neurology Department, reflects on her experiences as a member of the Chocolate Heads Movement Band. Syrkin-Nikolau relates how joining the group provided her with a community when she moved to the Bay Area. She describes the collaborative nature of the group under Aleta Hayes--how individually created pieces are then used to build the choreography of duets or group dances. She notes the diversity of the dance troupe and how Hayes creates beautiful performances from this diversity. She also talks about the concept of performance in dance and in life.
