Trio A (1966)

By Yvonne Rainer

As an authorized transmitter of Yvonne Rainer’s repertoire, I have taught and staged her influential postmodern dance Trio A internationally.

I have performed Rainer’s work for the past decade, including We Shall Run (1963), “Talking Solo” from Terrain (1963), Trio A (1966), and Chair Pillow (1969). My performance work includes Trio A’s approved variations Trio A Pressured, Trio A Retrograde, Performance Demonstration #1, and Trio A: a Baker’s Dozen, a looped solo performance of the dance 13 times over the course of approximately one hour.
