About the Artist
Sean Dorsey is an award-winning transgender and queer choreographer who has toured his work to 25 cities across the US. Sean also created THE SECRET HISTORY OF LOVE, which was recently awarded a Special Achievement Award at the 2014 Isadora Duncan Dance Awards and was presented by The Theater Offensive in May 2012. He is the Artistic Director as well as a dancer in our newest program, THE MISSING GENERATION.
THE MISSING GENERATION is dance-theater that gives voice to longtime survivors of the early AIDS epidemic. Through intimate storytelling and luscious partnering by a multi-generational ensemble of dancers, this powerful show is a love letter to a forgotten generation of survivors – those who witnessed and experienced the loss of part of an entire generation of gay and transgender people to AIDS in the 1980s and 1990s. Sean Dorsey created the work over a 2-year period by conducting oral history interviews with longtime survivors of the early AIDS epidemic, doing archival research, and hosting Community Residencies in 6 cities across the US.
