Abstrakt: Since the late twentieth century, script has been used as a tool for initiating the creation of dance. Likewise, in their compositional techniques, postmodern choreographers such as William Forsythe often refer to Rudolf Laban's space theory. This article discusses the points at which Laban's ideas about space are linked to postmodern compositional techniques, revisiting his concept of Schrifttanz and examining the spatial concepts that informed Tanzschriften, especially in the period before the development of Kinetographie.
