Men Die Sooner / Endance (4x3)

Yayınlanma tarihi: Tem 25, 1988

In this program, following a brief prologue by Ann Magnuson and a special appearance by Skip E. Lowe, performance artist Tom Cayler delivers a comic monologue entitled "Men Die Sooner," in which a professor of medicine gives a lecture on his theories about why men die sooner than women -- with a bizarre twist. In "Endance," a short documentary about dancer/choreographer Timothy Buckley and his decision to leave the dancing profession to work in costuming, performance clips of Buckley's choreography are intertwined with interview clips of Buckley; former company member Rocky Bornstein; Burt Supree, dance editor and writer for The Village Voice; choreographer Wendy Perron; photographer Chris Callis; ex-company member Karen Pearlman; and country-and-western singer Angel Dean.
