About

Named after the Greek goddess of dance and chorus and also an allusion to historian Sally Banes’ seminal book on postmodern dance “Terpsichore in Sneakers,” Terpsichore is a podcast celebrating dancers, choreographers, and bodies in motion. Curated and hosted by dance critic and writer Emily May, Terpsichore interviews leading voices from the dance industry about their lives, careers, and the artists that have inspired them.
