Early Works by Paul Taylor

Yale Dance Theater’s 2018 project focused on the early choreography of Paul Taylor. A groundbreaking artist, Taylor has been a leading force in the development of American modern dance since he emerged as a singular choreographic voice in the mid-twentieth century. Taylor continues to create new work and lead his internationally-renowned company to this day. 

Guided by guest artists from the Paul Taylor Dance Company, YDT has served as a laboratory for the reconstruction of “Party Mix,” a 1963 dance that has not been seen in four decades. 

Come out to see this dance piece, and others, performed by students and members of the Paul Taylor Dance Company.
