In 1976, Wendy Perron made The Daily Mirror by creating a chunk of movement every day for 100 days. It was a movement diary, reflecting the interior and exterior landscape of the day. Forty-five years later, she unearthed five contact sheets of photos that photographer Babette Mangolte had taken of this solo, performed in Trisha Brown’s loft. Perron thought it might be interesting to see a younger dancer use the 138 photos as a score with which to make her own choreography. Around the same time, Morgan Griffin, Perron’s former grad student at NYU Tisch Dance, was interested in combining dances of the past with her current sensibility. She accepted Perron’s challenge and started making her own original choices based on the photos. Intrigued by Griffin's new choreography, Perron entered this sequence as the older dancer she is, and the two made Part I. This is a duet between an older dancing body and a young dancing body, with touches of tenderness and humor. Part II is Griffin’s complete solo, which is her own dynamic path based on the 1976 photos of Perron.
