Varshavianka
Varshavianka is a historic Isadora Duncan dance created in the 1920s during her time in Russia. It is part of a series of political dances themed around oppression, struggle, and ultimate victory. This "dance gem" illustrates the endurance of the human spirit and remains a timeless work in the Duncan repertory. This rendition in contemporary costume and using a resistance flag demonstrates the timeless significance of the work.
