Susan Marshall & Company has, since 1982, performed the innovative works of Artistic Director/Choreographer Susan Marshall in theaters throughout the U.S., Europe, and the Far East. In addition to work with her company, Marshall has created dances for the Lyon Opera Ballet, Frankfurt Ballet, Boston Ballet, and Montreal Danse; and has collaborated on opera stagings with both Philip Glass and Francesca Zambello.
A 2000 recipient of a John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Fellowship, Marshall has received a Dance Magazine Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Brandeis University Creative Arts Citation, and was one of the first artists to receive the American Choreographer Award. Since 1985, Marshall, her artistic collaborators and company members, have received a total of nine New York Dance and Performance Awards (BESSIES) for their artistic achievements, and they have taught, led workshops and staged Marshall’s dances at more than a dozen leading programs and universities including the Juilliard School, New York University, Jacob’s Pillow, and Montreal Danse Choreographic Research Workshop. Susan Marshall is currently serving as Director of Dance at Princeton University’s Lewis Center for the Arts. |
