Recognized
as a leading authority and performer of the Duncan Repertoire,
Kathryne Cassis' interpretations and staging of Isadora's
dances are exhilarating, richly textured and profoundly moving.
As a Greek American with a background steeped in Greek
culture and art, her interpretations of the dances make her
unique in the world. Ms. Cassis’ performances of Isadora's
dances have been called “hauntingly powerful, romantic
ecstasy,” Jerry Weinstein, Orchesis Review, “a gifted
and disarming Isadora Duncan dancer,” Mark Hemeter,
Gambit Magazine, “a lyrical and appealing soloist,”
Victoria Looseleaf, Los Angeles Times.
In
2003 in Los Angeles, Ms. Cassis won the prestigious Lester
Horton Award for Achievement in Dance for her performance
and staging of Isadora's dances in Spirit Dances 6.
