A barefoot dancer and a 90-year-old juggler: Sean Gandini reveals the people who have shaped him and his career.
Gill was a dancer and choreographer with whom we collaborated for our first decade of Gandini Juggling. It was a decade of making pieces in the kitchen. A decade of barefoot dance studios and and non-linear decisions. Gill was an idealist, believing in dance for dance’s sake. Her belief in the redemptive power of art verged on the mystical. She was dedicated to dance and dancers, from her dawn risings to her early nights. She also danced with an otherworldly intensity. The Siobhan Davies archives, which are public and accessible, contain some of her dancing jewels.
