About Kimerer LaMothe

I am a dancer, philosopher, scholar of religion, and mother of five, who wrote the book, lyrics, and music for Nietzsche! The Musical.

WHY WE DANCE

I remember well the email I received in March 2021 from film maker Nathalie Bibeau. She had been reading my work and wondered whether I wanted to work with her on a documentary about dance. I said yes!

I couldn’t be more pleased or proud of the outcome. Nathalie gathered an impressive group of scientists, scholars, and artists — whom I am honored to “meet” — and wove our stories together in a beautiful and compelling work.
