NEW YORK – The new PBS documentary on dancer-choreographer Twyla Tharp is called “Twyla Moves.” In retrospect, that sounds a bit weak.
AdGiven all that, it would seem obvious that something like a global pandemic wouldn't force Tharp off course, or keep her on the sofa binge-watching Netflix.
Tharp explains it simply: "Part of the adventure for me has always been a physical challenge."
In one old clip, TV host Dick Cavett asks Tharp what she does to relax after a long period of work.
Tharp didn’t want the film, directed by Steven Cantor and part of the American Masters series, to feel like a biography.
