Mark Morris, celebrated as one of the most prolific, influential, and musically profound choreographers of our time, has long been contemplating a deeply personal question: What will happen to his company and his remarkable body of nearly 200 works after his death? In response, he has begun creating new works designed for posthumous premieres, as part of the Mark Morris Dance Group’s Dance for the Future legacy plan. In this intimate conversation, interwoven with dances performed by members his company, Morris will reflect on how this process has shaped his understanding of artistic legacy and the vital role of art in confronting our mortality.
