DISHONORING MARTHA GRAHAM

If you thought things were bleak for the Martha Graham Company last month when it disbanded, they’re even worse now. “The company board has changed the locks on the warehouse where it keeps its costumes and scenery out of fear that its former artistic director would take them. That artistic director, Ron Protas, whom Graham herself chose to carry on her work, operates by cell phone from a location he refuses to reveal and is working to prevent the company from performing any of Graham’s dances.” – New York Times
