Two of her early autobiographical works, Lamont Earth Observatory and Muzz have toured extensively across Canada and abroad, and her latest creation, Bird, has received wide critical acclaim. In 1997, Peggy Baker choreographed Garland for Sarah Chase, and in 2004, Chase created The Disappearance of Right and Left for Baker, a unique autobiographical work incorporating text and movement.
