Timeline
Claire Porter (born December 23, 1942) is an American choreographer/comedian known for blending comedic monologues with dance movement.
She is also an award-winning performer, author, and dance educator whose dance works, which she refers to as Portables, have been produced by various dance organizations, college theater programs and venues around the world.
Claire Porter was born in New Britain, Connecticut, where, as a child, she was a star athlete and danced in a local studio.
After she earned her BA in Mathematics from the College of New Rochelle in New York, she became a computer programmer for G.E. Analytical Engineering in Schenectady, New York.
Porter returned to her dancing roots after witnessing a performance by Maria Tallchief.
She then attended Sonoma State University in California from 1969 to 1973.
At Sonoma State, she studied dance, taught Family Dance, Exercise, and Children's Dance, and directed a dance company of 12 members.
Porter eventually moved from California to Ohio to study dance at Ohio State University.
It was there that Porter discovered Laban Movement Analysis and began exploring gestures, acting, writing, and voice.
She later received her certification for Laban Movement Analysis at the Laban/Bartenieff Institute of Movement Studies NYC.
She earned her MA in Dance from Ohio State and has continued the exploration of gestural movement as a teacher, choreographer and performer.
Porter has been a resident of Teaneck, New Jersey.
Porter's Portables are a number of comedic movement monologues and group theater dance pieces.
Although these works have taken the comedic route, they were not initially created to be funny.
The comedic interpretation was a result of how her audience viewed her works.
She came up with the name Portables when she was leaving Ohio State University.
It is a pun on Porter's last name as well as a sentimental way of signifying that she planned to take her dance works with her when she graduated.
She is also said to call her works Portables because they can be performed in both small and large spaces.
Each Portable is about 12 minutes in length, so about 5 or 6 Portables are performed at each concert.
