In Untamed, Sara Veale focuses predominantly on nine women, each of whom were instructive in the development of modern dance: Isadora Duncan, Louie Fuller, Maud Allan, Martha Graham, Sophie Maslow, Anna Sokolow, Pearl Primus, Katherine Dunham and Pearl Lang. These women conceived, directed and performed their own work, catalysing a powershift and transforming the visibility of female dancemakers in the 20th century.
In three 'Acts', reflecting the three main periods of modern dance, Veale looks at these female dancers' and choreographers' use of feminist movement styles, how they rejected the rigid dress code of ballet and put on gender-swapped productions; their work providing a parallel to societal developments of the time, most notably campaigns for women's rights.
Untamed brings to life the work of these singular women, whose irreverence for tradition both echoed and shaped cultural narratives about women's place in the world.
Sara is a London-based writer and editor focussing on dance, feminism and design. She studied literature and dance as an undergraduate at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and holds an MA in English: Issues in Modern Culture from University College London. Sara has been a freelance dance critic since 2013, reviewing major international dance companies, covering arts festivals across the UK and Europe, and interviewing industry giants. She writes regularly for the Observer, the Spectator, Fjord Review and DanceTabs. Her dance criticism has also appeared in Gramophone, Auditorium, Exeunt and more; her literary criticism has appeared in The Literateur, Fiction Uncovered and Review 31, where she was the fiction reviews editor from 2014 to 2020. Sara is also a member of the Dance Critics' Circle.
