Ella Davis thought everything had fallen into place with the love of her life, Gideon Pike. She was wrong. After Gideon’s cousin and bandmate is involved in a traumatic accident, Gideon is forced to stay in the small town of Sugar Grove while his band, Eternal Youths, desperately tries to pick up the pieces before an extended festival tour. But his change of plans doesn’t stop Ella’s. Her publicity company, Maven Media, now has an office space in the Big Apple. She thought love could overcome anything, until the distance creates a rift in their relationship. Moving to the city was always a dream she was eager to fulfill, but now she’s not so sure. Gideon lost Ella once, and there’s no way in hell he was going to lose her again. He doesn’t care if he has to travel several hours every weekend to see her, especially after a new development with her company keeps her from visiting him. But the replacement guitarist is not learning the set list quick — or well — enough for the upcoming tour, and his cousin hasn’t recovered the way they’d hoped, threatening to keep Gideon from Ella for the next year. Scrambling to find a way to not only keep their relationship afloat but to merge their two lives, Gideon puts everything on the line to finally give Ella the life — and love — she deserves.

This book takes choreographer William Forsythe’s choreographic and scenographic processes as a holistic lens through which to view dance as a fundamentally visuo-sonic art form and choreography as a form of perceptual experimentation. In doing so, it reveals how the made worlds within which postdramatic dance is situated influence how choreography is perceived. Resonating with ecological perspectives but also drawing on an extensive range of cognitive research approaches, the volume’s choreo-scenographic perspective emphasizes the importance of considering the expanded scenography of lighting, sound, space, scenic elements, costume, and performer movement when analyzing the sensory and cognitive perception of dance. The volume provides a first book-length cognitive study of both an individual choreographer and the aesthetics of postdramatic theatre. It also satisfies a need for more dedicated scholarship on Forsythe, whose extensive and varied array of groundbreaking ballets and dance theater works for the Ballett Frankfurt (1984-2004), The Forsythe Company (2005-15), and as an independent choreographer have made him a key figure in 20th/21st century dance.
