Love, Isadora

Rated 5.0

Isadora Duncan (1877-1927) was a brilliant pioneer of modern dance, blazing a trail from her native San Francisco through Europe. Her uninhibited life (provocative performances, scandalous affairs, leftist politics and a freakish death) kept her name in the tabloids, too. Staged locally in 2008, this revival includes new material from Duncan's uncensored autobiography (revised and updated in 2013). Actress and choreographer Lori Russo is remarkable in this one-woman show. F, Sa 8pm; Su 2pm. Through 10/14. $15-$20. California Stage, 2509 R St.; (916) 451-5822; www.calstage.org. J.H.
