Lucinda Childs, choreographer: 'In minimalist music and dance, there is a simplicity that is not simple and a complexity that is accessible'

The American choreographer has revolutionized dance with pared-down, repetitive movements rooted in everyday life since the 1960s. She continues to create new works and is preparing a piece for January 2027 to mark the 90th birthday of Philip Glass, the composer with whom she is closest.
