Forsythe gone from Forsythe Company in September 2015

William Forsythe, dance innovator, and widely regarded as one of the most important choreographers of our time, is quitting the company to which he attached his name on September 2015. The New York Times reports that. He will still remain associated with the company as an advisor, but the real management will probably be taken over by Jacopo Godani, a former student of the legendary choreographer.

Met het vertrek van Forsythe zal het gezelsdchap ook zijn naam verliezen, zo vermoedt de krant. Of het vertrek te maken heeft met het gesteggel over de subsidie voor het gezelschap, dat zowel in Dresden als in Frankfurt zetelt, vermeldt het artikel niet. We weten we dat de subsidie van beide steden en deelstaten inmidels veiliggesteld is, ondanks het feit dat Forsythe in zijn eigen theater in Dresden slechts 3000 bezoekers per jaar schijnt te trekken, wat boulevardkrant Bild een schande zegt te vinden.

Tijdens het Holland Festival is The Returns te zien, het nieuwste stuk van Forsythe.
