Choreographic

/ˌkɔriəˈɡræfɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to choreography; designed to show or describe the arrangement of dance movements and patterns.

Etymology

From 'choreography' plus '-ic,' an adjectival suffix. Used in the analysis, discussion, and study of dance as a formal art.

Kelly Says

When critics use 'choreographic choices' in their writing, they're treating dance like literature—analyzing it for artistic intent, meaning, and technical decisions, which is actually pretty recent in how seriously we take dance as a thinking person's art.
