Meet Sean Dorsey, one of the nation's first transgender modern dance choreographers:
The 1978 concept album “Sesame Street Fever,” featuring Grover in his iconic white suit a la John Travolta, left an indelible mark on pioneering choreographer Sean Dorsey. Back in his native Vancouver, nothing would stop a toddler-aged Dorsey from reaching the turntable. He would rotate"Sesame Street Fever" with the"Fame" motion picture soundtrack. “I loved dance passionately with every cell in my body from my very earliest memories,” he shares.
Dorsey has been called a revolutionary pioneer, visionary leader, and creative arts advocate. He regularly tours his company and original dance works all over the country while leading transformative and educational workshops to promote acceptance and trans equity in dance. Jeryl Brunner: As your dance company celebrates its 15 year anniversary, what is the audience reaction to your work today, versus when you first started?Today, dance audiences finally have more knowledge and familiarity with trans people and issues, even if they’ve never seen us onstage before. Fifteen years ago, there was no one like me and so I had to provide even more context for my work.
