Laura sits down with Sean Dorsey, one of the first acclaimed trans choreographers, to discuss how he made his way to choreography, the work he's about to present at The Joyce, and where the dance field needs to go to be more inclusive of the trans experience.
If you are interested in Trans advocacy, Sean recommends:
