SOKOLOW THEATRE/DANCE ENSEMBLE is a company of dancers founded by long-time Sokolow associate, Jim May, and presently under the artistic directorship of Samantha Geracht. Their aim is to recreate works choreographed by Anna Sokolow, continue her teachings, and develop her artistic vision for the purpose of passing on for posterity Anna Sokolow’s lifetime efforts to combine the arts of theatre, da
nce, music and painting. Sokolow encouraged artistic growth and the Sokolow Ensemble continues this desire by offering its expertise, knowledge, and experience to new choreographers who are interested in multi-arts projects. In this manner, the ensemble will influence both the past as well as the future, will continue challenging the boundaries of dance by presenting the issues of humanity and strengthening our culture through artistic expression. The Sokolow Ensemble will reach out into the community through teaching and make available archival material through many sources, including libraries, website, gallery showings, interviews, lectures, as well as performances.
