Summary
Billie Mahoney leads a discussion among seven women who, like her, were teenaged members of the Gillespie and Sullivan Dancers in Kansas City, Missouri, in the 1930s and 40s. They reminisce about their teachers Marcella Gillespie and Helen Sullivan, and about their performing experiences, which included ballet, tap, acrobatics, and singing. They also discuss the lifelong influences of dance education and performance, which continue to affect their present-day activities.
