Interview with Ginger Lane

“It Comes Down to Loving Movement”

Text by Emmaly Wiederholt

In this episode of DanceCast, Silva interviews Ginger Lane, a Chicago based dancer, teacher and
choreographer. Ginger shares how the themes of dance and disability activism have come together in
her career, specifically through her involvement with Access Living and MOMENTA Dance Company. She
discusses the struggle that physically integrated dance faces in being seen as a legitimate art form, the
slow progress in the US as compared to Europe, and the difficulty building repertoire in physically
integrated dance.
