Abstract

“The Spaces Between: Reimagining and Rebuilding Sokolow’s Slaughter of the Innocents” recounts the necessary preparations, range of requirements and accumulated experiences that the creative process of reimagining and rebuilding Sokolow’s Slaughter of the Innocents, demanded. Step by step, “The Spaces Between” informs the reader of the multidisciplinary reimagining of a dance long lost to the repertory. Along the way, the thesis also provides information about modern dance history; Anna Sokolow, her era and concerns; and, most importantly, her current relevance.
