Ezra Dickinson There are some dancers you want to watch no matter what they’re doing, and Dickinson is one. He’s performed in an incredible variety of modes, from cabaret to ballet, with stops at experimental theater and performance art. Like the best of chameleons, he seems at home everywhere. In Mother for you I made this, he looks back on his own changeable past caring for a schizophrenic parent, showing us a collection of vignettes originally made as gifts for his mother.
